Hi Rocky, Trying to build a new spamsnake server, but running into the same issue over and over again. I am doing it in VMware ESXi so I can revert back to snapshot when it goes bad. So I have tried 4 times following the instructions without deviation just in case I missed something, but I keep getting stuck at the same place. When I move Pyzor I get the following errors... root@spamsnake:/# mv /var/lib/python-support/python2.6/pyzor-* /var/lib/python-support/python2.5/ mv: cannot move `/var/lib/python-support/python2.6/pyzor-0.4.0.egg-info' to `/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/': Not a directory next line results in the following error... root@spamsnake:/# mv /var/lib/python-support/python2.6/pyzor* /var/lib/python-support/python2.5/pyzor/ mv: target `/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/pyzor/' is not a directory For the second line I create the /python2.5/pyzor dir in the /var/lib/python-support dir. Then the root@spamsnake:/# mv /var/lib/python-support/python2.6/pyzor* /var/lib/python-support/python2.5/pyzor/ succeeds... I then try to do the pyzor --homedir /var/lib/MailScanner discover and I get -bash: /usr/bin/pyzor: /usr/bin/python: bad interpreter: No such file or directory I think something is missing in the instructions or the commands mv /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python26 ln -s /usr/bin/python2.5 /usr/bin/python or the chmod commands are not doing the right thing. seems like python 2.5 is not installed. Thoughts on what I do now? James
I fixed this initial error but I'm getting other errors in the mail.log I searched the forums for this error, found some threads, but I have not been able to resolve the issue. I get the following errors in my mail.log Aug 5 09:29:26 spamsnake MailScanner[4641]: Read 850 hostnames from the phishing whitelist Aug 5 09:29:26 spamsnake MailScanner[4641]: Read 5821 hostnames from the phishing blacklist Aug 5 09:29:27 spamsnake MailScanner[4641]: Using SpamAssassin results cache Aug 5 09:29:27 spamsnake MailScanner[4641]: Could not create SpamAssassin cache database /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/SpamAssassin.cache.db Aug 5 09:29:27 spamsnake MailScanner[4641]: Enabling SpamAssassin auto-whitelist functionality...

Hey, Please double check that you did everything in section 16 and also section 17. It must be permission issues. Rocky
Permissions I'm starting over again... I got permissions so messed up It would take more time for me to figure it out than to revert back to snapshot and start over. Thanks.
