• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Spamassassin error in maillog: prefork

Spamassin will randomly error out and die.. well, not die as the service keeps running... but it will stop working, and return a prefork error. Found this as a reported bug, but should anyone else experience the problem, at least they know that it's something being worked on.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&safe=off&q="Mail/SpamAssassin/SpamdForkScaling.pm+line+554"

Affects:

SpamAssassin Server version 3.1.0
running on Perl 5.8.0
with SSL support (IO::Socket::SSL 0.96)

So until a patch is released that fixes the error, expect the possibility of some tweaked customers getting suddenly bombarded with **** until spamassassin restarts.

The error returned is:

prefork: syswrite(7) failed, retrying... at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/Mail/SpamAssassin/SpamdForkScaling.pm line 554

Of course, the "fix" is to run spamd with --round-robin, but /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/spamd does not support that option. I'm left with setting a cron to restart spamd every hour so as to assure that it keeps doing it's job.

Anyone else have another suggestion on how to patch this up?
