Amavis and Spamassassin error with '.pre' files (using iRedMail)

fr flag

I installed iRedMail which would install amavis and spamassassin. When I test sending and receiving email, I have an error in the /var/log/mail.log, I see this line of error:

postfix/amavis/smtp[14582]: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10026: Connection refused

when I run this line: $sudo amavisd-new debug I see at the end of the output:

files are in the config directory.\nAt a minimum, v320.pre loads the Check plugin which is required. Jun 12 11:58:25.764 mail.example.com /usr/sbin/amavisd-new[20040]: sd_notify (no socket): STOPPING=1\nSTATUS=TROUBLE in pre_loop_hook: Timeout::_run: check: no loaded plugin implements 'check_main': cannot scan!\nCheck that the necessary '.pre' files are in the config directory.\nAt a minimum, v320.pre loads the Check plugin which is required.

Suicide () TROUBLE in pre_loop_hook: Timeout::_run: check: no loaded plugin implements 'check_main': cannot scan! Check that the necessary '.pre' files are in the config directory. At a minimum, v320.pre loads the Check plugin which is required.

This is also the output of $spamassassin --lint -D:

Timeout::_run: check: no loaded plugin implements 'check_main': cannot scan! Check that the necessary '.pre' files are in the config directory. At a minimum, v320.pre loads the Check plugin which is required

I looked up in the /etc/mail/spamassassin directory and I can't see any '.pre' files in it. I also searched for v320.pre file using this: $sudo find / -iname v320.pre with no result.

If I disbale the amavis using: $sudo nano /etc/amavis/conf.d/50-user and changing these two lines:

@bypass_virus_checks_maps = (1); @bypass_spam_checks_maps = (1);

and then restarting the service: $sudo systemctl restart amavis and then processing the mail queue: $postqueue -f the mail server would work perfectly fine! So it is obvious that I should put some '.pre' files in the /etc/mail/spamassassin directory. I found out that there are some '.pre' files in this url: https://apache.googlesource.com/spamassassin/+/trunk/rules My question is: Is it safe to download these files and put them in my directory? Or in general where can I find '.pre' files or generate them?

Does a log from the time *spamassassin* was installed reveal why its configuration files were not copied to `/etc`?

@anx I checked the `install.log` file and there is no error regarding the apamassassin installation (or anything else). It doesn't have any information about '.pre' files. It only has these lines in it: ```[ INFO ] Configure SpamAssassin (content-based spam filter). + < DEBUG > Copy sample SpamAssassin config file: /path/to/iRedMail-1.4.0/samples/spamassassin/local.cf -> /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf. + < DEBUG > Enable crontabs for SpamAssassin update.```

@anx I also checked the installation files: `iRedMail-1.4.0/samples/spamassassin` it only has two files in it: `local.cf` and `razor.conf`

To whom it may concern, I downloaded the whole version regarding the one that was installed on my server from (https://spamassassin.apache.org/)[https://spamassassin.apache.org/]. Then I scrolled down to rules directory from the downloaded files and copy v320.pre to my server /etc/mail/spamassassin directory (since v320.pre is the minimum requirement for spamassassin and amavis to work). Then I used this command to update the rules: $sudo sa-update I restarted amavis and spamassassin services:

$sudo systemctl restart amavis

$sudo systemctl restart spamassassin

checked the debug outputs using these command lines:

$sudo amavisd-new debug

$spamassassin --lint -D

After I made sure, there is no error, I enabled the service in this file:

$sudo nano /etc/amavis/conf.d/50-user

and modified these lines:

@bypass_virus_checks_maps = (0);

@bypass_spam_checks_maps = (0);

save and close the file, and restart the service.

$sudo systemctl restart amavis

To make sure everything is working find just send and receive an email. And yeah :)

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
