Error spamd in maillog
Good afternoon,
In my server of email it is appears the following error in maillog:
Jul 2 15:16: 56 to mailserver spamc [19271]: connect you spamd on
127.0.0.1failed, retrying (#1 of 3): Connection refused
Jul 2 15:16: 56 to mailserver spamd [15754]: prefork: child states: II
Jul 2 15:16: 57 to mailserver spamc [19271]: connect you spamd on
127.0.0.1failed, retrying (#2 of 3): Connection refused
Jul 2 15:16: 58 to mailserver spamc [19271]: connect you spamd on
127.0.0.1failed, retrying (#3 of 3): Connection refused
Jul 2 15:16: 59 to mailserver spamc [19271]: connection attempt you spamd
aborted to after 3 retries
when I try for the service of spamassassin appears the following message:
[to root@mailserver ~] # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/sa-spamd stop
spamd not running? (check /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid).
However the service is twirling and marking punctuation in e-mails. What it
can be happening of wrong?
Thz.

My initial guess is that you're trying to connect to spamd via its standard
port 783, instead of the spamd.socket file that you've setup. Are you using
"spamc -U /var/run/spamd.socket" ?

You are using the -u option. Here's what the -r option says in the man
page:
-r pidfile, --pidfile=pidfile
Write the process ID of the spamd parent to the file specified by
pidfile. The file will be unlinked when the parent exits. Note that
when running with the -u option, the file must be writable by that
user.
Is the pid file writable by the user you are running spamd under?
You also shouldn't have to specify the -d or -r options. The startup
script automatically does this for you. Here's from my
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/sa-spamd.sh
pidfile=${spamd_pidfile:-"/var/run/spamd/spamd.pid"}
...
command_args="-d -r ${pidfile}"
Here's what I have for startup options:
spamd_flags="--username=spamd --groupname=spamd --min-children=10 --max-children=40 --min-spare=20 --max-spare=22 --max-conn-per-child=160 --timeout-tcp=40 --timeout-child=320 --sql-config --nouser-config"
My install is local to the server so I just use the default TCP localhost
connection.

Start spamd using parameters:
spamd_enable="YES"
spamd_flags="-u qscand -D -P -x -q -c -d -r /var/run/spamd.pid
--socketpath=/var/run/spamd.socket \
--socketowner=qscand --socketgroup=qscand"
anything wrong ?

This can happen if you attempt to start spamd using incorrect parameters
with the startup switches. I know this from experience.
To kill spamd, you have to find its parent process and kill it. Here, I
run on FreeBSD. So, I use:
ps auxwj | grep spamd
One of the things the <j> switch tells 'ps' is to list the ppid (parent
process ID). Thus, I can now do:
kill <ppid_returned_from_ps>
