Bayes database corrupt.

[Michael Hutchinson <mh...@manux.co.nz>]

Hi all,

 

Recently upgraded SA to 3.1.7 (the latest supported by Debian Sarge
backports.).

 

I just caught a nasty problem with our Bayes Database. Spamd children
were trying to use 99% CPU each (5 of them) and were hanging not doing
any processing. I discovered that there was in issue with our Bayes
Database, I have moved the Database and SA is running just fine. I need
to be able to repair the database, as our accuracy has now gone and we
are reciepting way too much spam (for our clients, at least.. we don't
care too much about it but they sure do).

 

Does anyone know how to fix a corrupted Bayes Database ?

 

Cheers,

Mike

Why do you think the DB is corrupt?  All you said is that the children were
doing processing on the DB, which sounds a lot like an expire run.
