Issue 'run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/60sa-update' in my mailbox today?

[jmar83]

Why?

Screenshot here:

What is "sa" from "60sa-update" ?

Thank you very much for your feedback.

It's the daily spamassassin update.
Are there any errors in /var/log/sa-update.log?

Issue - Spam Assassin - 60sa-update exited with return code 2

As the title says I receive an e-mail with subject: Cron test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily ) Content: run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/60sa-update exited with return code 2 How can I fix this or can it be ignored?

Hi

Thank you for your feedback.

1.) I don't have that mail daily

2.) It has an exit code that not equals 0 which implies an error or at least a warning (which must not imply a problem in every case)

3.) The file /var/log/sa-update.log seems to be huge, but on the last line i see:

@IgorG : Thx. Is there a hotfix or patch available? Or can i turn off that kind of notifications?

You can disable the sa-update execution by moving 60sa-update file from /etc/cron.daily to a different location:

# mv /etc/cron.daily/60sa-update /root

 

[jmar83]

Thx.

There is no checkbox in plesk to disable ONLY that kind of notification?

 

[Maarten.]

This is an OS notification. If you don't want it either move the /etc/cron.daily/60sa-update as Igor said or add an empty MAILTO="" in the script (this can be overwritten by an upcoming Plesk update):

#!/bin/bash
MAILTO=""

@maartenv : Thank you very much.

@IgorG : Regarding your link to the other thread with PERL source code: What do you think about that hotfix solution?

sub read_content {
  my ($file_name, $binary_mode) = @_;
  my $content;

  my $file = IO::File->new;
 
 
  # Custom {
  if (-e $file_name) {
    #print "File $file_name exists!\n";
    
    
    # Original source code {
    $file->open($file_name, '<') or die "Cannot open file $file_name: $!";
  if ($binary_mode) {
    binmode $file;
  }
 
  my($number_of_bytes,$buffer);
  $content = '';
  while (($number_of_bytes = $file->read($buffer, 16384)) > 0) {
    $content .= $buffer;
  }
  defined $number_of_bytes or die "Error reading from file $file_name: $!";
  $file->close or die "Error closing $file_name: $!";
    # } Original source code
    
    
    
  }
  else {     
    #print "File $file_name does not exist!\n";
    my $logfile = '/var/log/sa-update-userlog.log';   
    my $str = "File $file_name does not exist!";       
    open(FH, '>', $logfile);
    print FH $str;
    close(FH);
  }
  # } Custom
 

  return $content;
}

if (-e $file_name) ... else ... is MY code and the code in "if" condition is still the same as original

 

[IgorG]

What do you think about that hotfix solution?

Sorry, I'm not Perl or Spamassassin developer

 

[jmar83]

ok thx

 

[jmar83]

Maybe somebody else can tell me what he thinks about my workaround?

 

[jmar83]

Correction:

my $file = IO::File->new;

sould be in the "if" condition - otherwise ("else") the file i/o handle would not be closed.
