Syntax Error

[Nelly Yusupova <ne...@cgim.com>]

Hello,

I'm running SA version 2.63 with procmail on Solaris 2.6.  Yesterday, I
switched to using spamd/spamc programs from spamassassin.  When I start up
spamd as follows:

root> /usr/local/bin/spamd <enter>

I start getting the following errors:

Failed to run header SpamAssassin tests, skipping some: syntax error at
(eval 19) line 302, near ") {"
syntax error at (eval 19) line 373, near ";
}"

The mail is processing fine and I have the following process running:

root 21911  2224  0 01:53:38 pts/0    1:23 /usr/local/bin/perl -T
/usr/local/bin/spamd

Does anyone know what I can do to stop the error from popping up?

Thanks in advance,
Nelly.

First question: did you edit ANYTHING in /usr/share/spamassassin? If so, 
re-install and don't do that again.

Otherwise Generally this is a typo or other problem in one of your site or 
user config files. Use spamassassin --lint to help you track it down. I'd 
start by moving any custom rulefiles (in /etc/mail/spamassasssin), local.cf 
and user_prefs entirely out of their directories and see if lint runs 
clean. If it does, put them back one at a time and see which one causes it 
to bomb..
