Hi all, Question: Do you run the cron.d for updating spamassassin that came with the distro (centos 5.x)? I tried doing it when it was first set up and it just kept failing. Although set to run, neither sa-update logs nor cron logs show any activity at all on this cron. And thus I usually do it by hand, running sa-update -D on the command line every week or so. The cron.d/sa-update file is chmod 0600 and owned by root. The contents are as was installed -------------------------------- 10 4 * * * root /usr/share/spamassassin/sa-update.cron 2>&1 | tee -a /var/log/sa-update.log -------------------------------- When running the cron manually from the command line, it says: -------------------------------- /etc/cron.d/sa-update: line 9: 10: command not found --------------------------------- And the cron log will say ------------------------------- "May 18 18:56:01 mail crond[3919]: (*system*) BAD FILE MODE (/etc/cron.d/sa-update)" ------------------------------- All research online and in bugs only refer to an old syntax error that is no longer in the code. I did find quite a few posts from people all over the web that this was not working for them. Not one was fixed or resoved. I tired making the cron 0755 but that did not change anything. I could find no bug reports on this on either rhel or centos. So, I was just thinking about making a crontab to run sa-update daily and see if that works. I would like to use as intended though. Has anyone experienced this problem, and has anyone figured out what is wrong? Thanks in advance.
