[BlueOnyx:23646] Re: After yum update spamassassin fails and will not start - Update available

[Michael Stauber]

Hi all,

> We have had to disable it until Michael can suggest a fix …

There was a spamassassin update from CentOS last night for CentOS 7 and
that replaced the modified spamassassin that the AV-SPAM shipped.

This caused the problems and this list-server was affected as well.

As a result I rebuilt our spamassassin RPM with a much higher release
number (spamassassin-3.4.0-15 instead of spamassassin-3.4.0-5) and
pushed it out to the AV-SPAM YUM repository.

If you're running the AV-SPAM on 5209R please do this:

yum clean all
yum update

That will install the needed spamassassin-3.4.0-15 for you.

If YUM reports this during the install ...

warning: /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf created as
/etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf.rpmnew

... then you might want to run this command ...

cp /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf.rpmnew /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf

... in order to keep your old configuration. But saving the AV-SPAM
settings in the GUI will also restore the previous configuration after
the YUM update.
