Problem with spamassassin update at /usr/bin/sa-update line 1603
Hello,
I have a mailserver with postfix installed (v.2.11.0) on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
with Amavis, ClamAV and Spamassasins (v. 3.004002)
Since the last upgrade that I have done next week, the upgrade of new
signatures fails with this messages:
"/etc/cron.daily/spamassassin:Cannot open file
/var/lib/spamassassin/3.004002/updates_spamassassin_org/1854020.tar.gz: No
such file or directory at /usr/bin/sa-update line 1603."
The problem isn't the file that clearly doesn't exist but some mirrors
that it seems have problems when they are called.
I have seen many post where they spoke about permission but I have checked
and all it's correct.
Debugging the perl file called spamassasins, you get to a point where it
appears the mirror's list and their weight;
the first attempts is done on sa-update.spamassassin.org but the response
is 503 as highlighted below:

So I ask you if it's possible to intervene on the mirror's list with some
option so that to exclude the bad mirrors.
Thanks in advance for who will answer me.

The SA rules are not signatures as such. The core rules tend to be
fairly generic, so missing an update here and there isn't that much of a
problem - it's not like missing an antivirus update.
If you have a problem with reliability there nothing to stop you
running sa-update several times a night. If the rules are up-to-date
sa-update is just a single DNS lookup.

This worked for me when I just tried it, and I don't have any recent
sa-update failures.

In the short term you can edit unwanted mirrors out of the MIRRORED.BY
file. It will get replaced after a week (if you don't touch it).
It's worth trying just to see what happens.

Escalating that issue to our sysadmins list. Thanks for reporting the
problem.
