and it stops there.
I have tried to experiment with different versions of SA, V3.0.6 does the
same, V3.1.1 stops on this: Periodic ping from spamd, waiting 300 sec and
the message loops indefinetly.

spamc is waiting for input. Change the way you call it to be:
spamc < [some file with email] 2>&1 | tee /tmp/error.log

Only if incoming email is being spam checked by SpamAssassin - exactly
once.

It would help to give spamc some input.
"spamc <testemail"
How does your email setup fall together? Mail comes into your system
somehow. What program is involved? What programs does that program
invoke to filter and deliver mail. It sounds like you are on the
nether end of the learning curve here.

spamc isnt running at all. when i type spamc 2>&1|tee /tmp/error.log it
doesnt give any errors in error.log, the prompt just remains blank until i
pres ctrl+c.

I may have missed it, but what are all of the command line options you
are sending to SpamD? And are you sure you aren't using SpamC? The
normal spamassassin script doesn't call SpamD. SpamC is the tool to use
to send mails to SpamD. Also, post the command line options for SpamC as
well (may help in showing why it isn't working like you think it should.)

i did read the readme, install, upgrade and i got all that. but i assumed
being a clean installation, the new spamassassin script should call spamd
properly. However besides that you can see that even if i manually call
spamd without the a option, it doesnt start. see the output.

The -a command-line parameter was removed and is now replaced by a
config-file option use_auto_whitelist.
Please read the UPGRADE file that comes with SA 3.0.0, this covers most
of the common configuration changes you need to be aware of. In the
future, when upgrading be sure to read the file before installing..
