SA 3.1.0 spamd error

Hi

i have just built 3.1.0 using
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/usr/local
make
make install

trying to use the start-up script as root i get

[root@proteus2 spamd]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin start
Starting spamd: ERROR!  spamassassin script is v3.000000, but using modules
v3.001003!

SA 3.0.0 is still installed under /usr/bin

Yes.

Absolutely not!

For your site rules, yes.  Not the default rules such as those you'd get with
sa-update.

You may benefit from reading:

For now required_hits is an accepted alias for required_score.

Hi

All seems to be running ok but sa-update put the latest .cf files in
/var/lib/spamassassin/3.001003/updates_spamassassin_org
not
/etc/mail/spamassassin

do i need to force sa-update to use the above with sa-update --updatedir
/etc/mail/spamassassin

reading the online docs suggests /etc/mail/spamassassin is the default.

Also i see required_score replaces required_hits i guess i need to change
all the users_prefs files or is it backwards compatible?

I believe there are good odds that they will interfere with each other
since many configuration directories are common and yet need different
local.cf setup.

That makes sense.

No, you need to fix the startup script to call the NEW version

Remove both root and branch and reinstall the more recent one, 3.1.3.
