qmail-scanner-reconfigure not working

[jsimarro]

I have tried to execute many times 'qmail-scanner-reconfigure' on my Linux Plesk 8.2.1, in order to set sa_delta=1, sa_delete=5 and sa_reject=1 (yes), on a per_user profile of SA/qmail scanner 2.01.

I have tried it after stopping spamassassin and psa-spamassassin, and after stopping only one of then. Always after changing my '/etc/qmail-scanner.ini':

SETTINGS_PER_DOMAIN="yes"
SA_DELTA="1"
SA_DELETE="5"
SA_REJECT="yes"

Te result is always the same: sa_delta=0, sa_delete=0 and sa_reject=0.

Anyway, if I try to modify manually 'qmail-scanner-queue.pl', even after restarting xinetd, messages are not rejected over the desired score.

I don't have any more ideas. Since I upgraded from 8.1.1, my SA is not working fine. Any suggestions?

if you're doing this with per-domain/user settings, are you regenerating the .db file?

 

[jsimarro]

Ooops, nope. Moreover, I think I don't know how to do it.

 

[atomicturtle]

just run qmail-scanner-queue.pl -h:

qmail-scanner-queue.pl 2.01st-20061223

-h - This help
-v - show details about this install.
Please include in any bug reports.
-V - show details about this install
and some configuration information.
-z - gather virus scanner/DAT versions
and cleanup old temp files
-g - generate perlscanner database
-r - read from perlscanner database

-p - generate settings per domain database
-d - display settings per domain database
-s - sort the text file /var/spool/qscan/settings_per_domain.txt

Something is wrong: I execute literally:

# /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl -p

Generating /var/spool/qscan/settings_per_domain.db

And I only find the file:

/var/spool/qscan/settings_per_domain.db.tmp

I am doing anything wrong, and I think this was easier in 8.1 (just changing manually qmail-scanner-queue.pl and restart xinet). Sorry.

 

[atomicturtle]

/var/spool/qscan/settings_per_domain.txt <- are you editing this file for your per-user/per-domain settings?

 

[jsimarro]

Yes, each line with this:

myclientdomain.com:clamdscan,ps’****SPAM****’0’1’5’1’’’’

Then regenerating the database, and reconfiguring, restarting xinet and starting SA.

Nothing happens. I am receiving emails with more than 100 points of score.

 

[atomicturtle]

Your configuration is incorrect, you've turned spamassassin off with that, what you want that to read is:

myclientdomain. com:sa,clamdscan,ps’****SPAM****’0’1’5’1’’’’

There is some error yet. I think I have read all this forum and ART's one, but I have forgotten something (I did all OK when PSA 8.1). I have done the following now:

0 - I had already installed and running sa and psa-sa, so not necessary to install sa, but reconfigure.

1 - I stopped sa from SSH and psa-sa from Plesk.

2 - I checked that '/etc/qmail-scanner.ini' had the following:

SETTINGS_PER_DOMAIN="yes"
SA_DELTA="1"
SA_DELETE="5"
SA_REJECT="yes"

3 - I edited the '/var/spool/qscan/settings_per_domain.txt' with this format:

mydomain.com:sa,clamdscan,ps'****SPAM****'0'1'5'1''''

4 - I executed '/var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl -p', so I got generated '/var/spool/qscan/settings_per_domain.db'

5 - When I execute 'qmail-scanner-reconfigure' it requests from me some parameter. I press 'Intro' another time and it runs and finishes.

6 - Then I start sa and psa-sa (I know they are two different instances, but I want to be sure that at less one of them is running properly) and restart xinetd.

7 - SpamAssassin marks all the messages correctly, but it does not reject messages with a score over "score+5" (score+sa_delete). I am receiving messages with a score over 200.

8 - After reconfigure, 'qmail-scanner-queue.pl' (both '/var/qmail/bin' and '/usr/share/qmail-scanner') changes its values to defaults. Even if I try to change it manually and restart xinetd, I get messages over the score.

¿Some ideas?
