No DNS available
I'm getting this:
eval failed: available_nameservers: No DNS servers available!
I do have nameservers available, and Net::DNS is installed, so I'm a bit
stuck.
Any advice?
Thanks

Thanks for the quick test. Mark did all the heavy-lifting, though.

It doesn't appear to be a bug. It appears to be a functionality change
that occurred with Net::DNS 0.76 so it would make sense any release
higher than that would also exhibit the behavior.

Yes, that seems to have fixed it. Many thanks to you and to Mark for your
efforts, and especially for the very quick responses.
For what it's worth, I'm actually using Net::DNS 0.77.

Walter, Mark Martinec found a change in Net::DNS 0.76 that likely is
your issue. He also submitted a patch which I've tested and appears to
fix your exact problem.
Can you either patch your installation based on the patch in
https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=7057 or use the
svn trunk version and let us know if it works for you now?

Nice catch. Can you create a bug for this so we can track it better,
please?

Looks like a change in Net::DNS 0.76, which no longer has a field
$res->{nameserver}, but has now fields nameserver4 and nameserver6,
with an official access method $res->nameservers.

Martin, Good call. They certainly don't work for me but some ISPs
restrict to their range. Try adding server 8.8.8.8 to use Google's
server as a test.
nslookup
> server 194.168.4.100
Default server: 194.168.4.100
Address: 194.168.4.100#53
> www.pccc.com
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
Then install and use a local caching nameserver. It will fix lots of
issues before they occur with a SpamAssassin installation and RBLs, etc.

KAM

I'm far from certain that those are DNS servers

You should likely be running a caching nameserver but that's a nit.
Net::DNS is unable to read your resolv.conf it appears. Are you using
selinux or anything like that?

This is the crux.
Should look something like:
Jun 17 16:27:40.311 [30240] dbg: dns: servers obtained from Net::DNS :
[127.0.0.1]:53,...
What does your /etc/resolv.conf look like?

Timely news of the bellwethers in computer and communications
technology that will affect electronic commerce -- since 1994

Q u o t e O f T h e M o m e n t
Even organizations that promise "privacy for their customers" rarely
if ever promise "continued privacy for their former customers..."
Once you cancel your account with any business, their promises of
keeping the information about their customers private no longer
apply... you're not a customer any longer.
This is in the large category of business behaviors that individuals
would consider immoral and deceptive -- and businesses know are not
illegal.

..TBTF's long hiatus is drawing to a close
Hail subscribers to the TBTF mailing list. Some 2,000 [1] of you
have signed up since the last issue [2] was mailed on 2000-07-20.
This brief note is the first of several I will send to this list to
excise the dead addresses prior to resuming regular publication.
While you time the contractions of the newsletter's rebirth, I in-
vite you to read the TBTF Log [3] and sign up for its separate free
subscription. Send "subscribe" (no quotes) with any subject to
tbtf-log-request@tbtf.com . I mail out collected Log items on Sun-
days.
If you need to stay more immediately on top of breaking stories,
pick up the TBTF Log's syndication file [4] or read an aggregator
that does. Examples are Slashdot's Cheesy Portal [5], Userland [6],
and Sitescooper [7]. If your news obsession runs even deeper and you
own an SMS-capable cell phone or PDA, sign up on TBTF's WebWire-
lessNow portal [8]. A free call will bring you the latest TBTF Log
headline, Jargon Scout [9] find, or Siliconium [10].
Two new columnists have bloomed on TBTF since last summer: Ted By-
field's roving_reporter [11] and Gary Stock's UnBlinking [12]. Late-
ly Byfield has been writing in unmatched depth about ICANN, but the
roving_reporter nym's roots are in commentary at the intersection of
technology and culture. Stock's UnBlinking latches onto topical sub-
jects and pursues them to the ends of the Net. These writers' voices
are compelling and utterly distinctive.

Thanks for the response. I'm actually not using spamc/spamd; just running
spamassassin from procmail. But anyway, /etc/resolv.conf is world
readable and contains valid nameserver entries.
No, I'm not running it in a chrooted environment of any kind.
There are no dns directive in my local.cf.
Any further thoughts?

Is the file /etc/resolv.conf readable by user running spamd?
Does it contain valid 'nameserver' entries?
Running spamd (or amavisd) in a chroot jail?
Are you using a directive dns_server or clear_dns_servers
in your .cf file check its validity.
