Re: [spambayes-dev] Running sb_server.py from init under Linux

[Richard Heck] > the suggestion was that sb_server.py should handle these things > itself (as most system daemons do), that is, lower its own > privileges if it discovers that it is running as root I'm -1 on this, personally. IMO it's up to whoever runs sb_server.py (or any of the other SpamBayes scripts) to decide what user should run it. What if a user wants to run it as root? What do we do on Windows? > and then daemonize itself by forking and dissociating itself from > the originating process. It sounds like what you actually want is a sb_daemon.py script that lowers privileges and launches sb_server.py (something like the pop3proxy_tray.py and pop3proxy_service.py scripts for Windows). Not everyone wants sb_server to run as a daemon. =Tony.Meyer

Running sb_server.py from init under Linux
by Richard Heck Jan. 29, 2006

Jan. 29, 2006

In response to some questions raised on another list, I've been fiddling with the initscript provided on the website for sb_server.py. (I'm doing so under Fedora.) Two questions have arisen. (1) Is there any reason that sb_server.py needs to run as root? If not, then it would be very good to run as an unprivileged user. Obviously, one does not want to think about a malformed email that confuses spambayes and allows the execution of arbitrary code running in a root shell. It's easy enough to modify the initscripts so that sb_server.py runs as an unprivileged user, but it would be more secure if sb_server.py lowered its own privilege level. Running it as e.g. user spambayes from init requries that this user have access to a shell, whereas by lowering privilege from within sb_server.py you can run as a user who has no shell access. (FYI: The initscript for the Cyrus IMAP daemon seems to use the init method.) (2) The initscripts call daemon(), which is a function defined in the init function library and which does various other things but basically just starts whatever program it's told to run. In particular, although called "daemon", this function does NOT daemonize that program. As a result, when the initscript runs daemon /usr/local/bin/sb_server.py & daemon() blocks, waiting for sb_server.py to finish, although of course the initscript itself continues, since daemon() is running in the background. As a result, the usual "OK" signal does not get printed, and we're left with extra processes hanging around: 1083 pts/1 S 0:00 /bin/sh /etc/init.d/spambayes start 1085 pts/1 S 0:00 initlog -q -c runuser -s /bin/bash - spambayes -c "/usr/bin/sb_server.py" 1086 pts/1 S 0:00 runuser -s /bin/bash - spambayes -c /usr/bin/sb_server.py 1087 pts/1 S 0:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/sb_server.py This can be resolved by running instead daemon "/usr/local/bin/sb_server.py&" Now daemon() calls "/usr/local/bin/sb_server.py&" and puts the job into the background. But this is a very ugly hack, or so it seems to me, and it could cause other problems, because it now looks to daemon() as if it's been asked to run a program called "sb_server.py&". I think one can work around that by instead running daemon --check=sb_server.py "/usr/local/bin/sb_server.py&" but this is getting messy. None of this is needed with other servers started via init, like httpd, because they daemonize themselves. Is it worth considering having sb_server.py do that, too? Best, Richard

Expunge, IMAP and the inbox
by etonkin＠free.fr Jan. 9, 2006

Jan. 9, 2006

Hello all, First of all, thanks for spending so much time on this software - my sense of humour has improved noticeably since the spam went away. There's one feature of the expunge functionality (-e y) with sb_imapfilter.py which I ended up altering, due to the fact that Thunderbird doesn't seem to handle the \Deleted flag very well (on my ISP's setup, at least) - as checked ham remains in my inbox, I get one to two \Deleted copies of each ham mail, which Thunderbird then refuses to expunge or hide. So I set -e y, and found \Deleted mail was correctly expunged from all folders apart from inbox. In function logout, the spam_folder, unsure_folder, ham and spam train folders are all expunged. But the expunge operation doesn't ever seem to be run on the inbox... so I added a couple of lines to complete this operation. def logout(self): # sign off if self.do_expunge: # we may never have logged in, in which case we do nothing if self.logged_in: # expunge messages from inbox self.select('inbox') self.expunge() # expunge messages from the spam and unsure folders for fol in ["spam_folder", "unsure_folder",]: self.select(options["imap", fol]) self.expunge() # expunge messages from the ham and spam training folders for fol_list in ["ham_train_folders", "spam_train_folders",]: for fol in options["imap", fol_list]: self.select(fol) self.expunge() Cheers, Em

500 server error
by Dudley Janeway Jan. 7, 2006

Jan. 7, 2006

i've been using spambayes for about the last six months or so, without a problem, until recently when the "500 Server error" page came up. this page shows up every now and then when I click on "review messages" at the top of the error report it says: 500 Server error Traceback (most recent call last): File "spambayes\Dibbler.pyc", line 470, in found_terminator File "spambayes\ProxyUI.pyc", line 396, in onReview File "spambayes\Corpus.pyc", line 214, in takeMessage File "spambayes\FileCorpus.pyc", line 140, in addMessage File "spambayes\Corpus.pyc", line 134, in addMessage File "spambayes\storage.pyc", line 617, in onAddMessage File "spambayes\storage.pyc", line 627, in train File "spambayes\message.pyc", line 263, in setId File "spambayes\message.pyc", line 119, in _getState File "shelve.pyc", line 118, in __getitem__ File "bsddb\__init__.pyc", line 116, in __getitem__ DBRunRecoveryError: (-30982, 'DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery -- fatal region error detected; run recovery') also, i notice that since this error report started showing up, spambayes was notlisting all of my new emails, only one or two when there are five or six.any ideas? i've uninstalled spambayes, cleaned out the registry,ran spyware/adaware/anti-virus scan, no negative results, and reinstalled spambayes,some error report shows up.thanxzJaneway

[Feature request] Reclassify Cache option in web interface
by Jason Melancon Jan. 2, 2006

Jan. 2, 2006

I've just installed the SpamBayes POP3 service with Eudora 5.2 and I'm attempting to use Skip's Recursive Training Set Selection Algorithm to ramp up its effectiveness. I've trained on about 14 messages now, and I think it's time to reclassify some messages. That's why I think a handy tool in the web interface would be a "reclassify all" button on the cache review page. That would allow me to test the current training and start the next iteration by correcting the classifier's biggest mistakes. -- Jason Melancon
