Common error or not?

[Morriz <mo...@idiotz.nl>]

Hi everybody, I hope I am sending this to the right place :)
 
 
I have the following problem after having run the new spamassassin 3.1.3 for
several days
 
The emails dont get stamped correctly after being evaluated and this shows
up in their headers:
 
SA:0(?/?)
 
 
And these lines show up in the log:
 
prefork: sysread(7) not ready, wait max 300 secs
prefork: child 6047: entering state 1
prefork: new lowest idle kid: 6047
prefork: child reports idle
prefork: child states: II
 
 
I have the following in /etc/sysconfig/spamassassin:
 
SPAMDOPTIONS="-d -m 50 -H -D"
 
 
I cannot find any solutions to this problem on the net. Only 4 or 5 people
so far have reported the same problem, but nobody has helped them.
 
Anybody knows whats going on?
 
 
cheerz,
 
Morriz

This shouldn't be the problem with only two children (as logged above) 
but do you really have enough memory for 50 children?  At a minimum 
you'd probably need close to 2GB of RAM dedicated for them and certainly 
no less than 1.5GB.
