SIGTERM kills spamd

[SweepingOar]

I got an obvious spam a little while ago that got scored
"X-Spam-Status: No, hits=? required=?" so I looked up the message in
the system log. Check out line 5 below (server killed by SIGTERM):

I think my system is up to date... When I run sa-update --debug
--checkonly I get this:
[25521] dbg: dns: 8.1.3.updates.spamassassin.org => 507739, parsed as
507739
[25521] dbg: channel: current version is 507739, new version is 507739,
skipping channel
[25521] dbg: diag: updates complete, exiting with code 1

This sigterm death seems to happen usually a couple of times a day
(sometimes it doesn't happen for days). I searched a bit and found a
bugzilla thing for something similar last week, but I don't think this
is the same error. If anyone has any idea... Thanks.

Hi SweepingOar

I've had problems with SpamAssassin / spamd with memory. How much memory does
the server have ? I know SA is quite a memory hog.

I've also played a little with Bogofilter, which is in portage. It's a little lighter AFAIK so
perhaps have a look at that ?

Which version of spamassassin are you running? I remember that 3.0 had a scheduler problem that caused crashes.

[SweepingOar]

The server has 1gb of ram. How could I figure out if that's the issue?

I'm using spamassassin version 3.1.8 which seems to be the latest stable version when I run sa-update --checkonly.

Thanks.
