Weird Spamd

Apr 28, 2008

i have this really annoying issue i'm hoping you can help with.

it seems the spamd child process gets stuck and causes 100% cpu usage. but this doens't just happen randomly, its only for this single user account. e.g. take a look at top output:

4581 <username> 93 40:58.87 1.3 82624 52m 2280 R spamd child

the 93 is 93% cpu usage. 40:58 is how long the process has been running, 40 minutes and counting (i just killed it though). and all it tells me its running spamd child. it usually dies after a few hours but only after causing 200% cpu usage (100% on both cpus) and making my server load skyrocket. This happens at least twice daily at no set times.

this user isn't a spammer. no scripts, no mail queue generation, no email accounts even.

running cpanel 11, centos 4.

Should Spamd Be Using 36% Of Memory

Spamd seems to be using 36% of RAM, which I work out to be around 290-300mb

Is that normal

Spamd Processes

Oct 15, 2007

I'm having a problem with one user account, every 5-10 minutes a spamd process of this user gets locked using 60-90% cpu and never ends. If I don't kill the process another one does the same and they all get locked causing very high loads

I reinstalled exim but it did nothing

The problem persisted even when this user's account was suspended

SpamD Server Without Using CPanel

Feb 8, 2008

It may have already been covered, but i have searched and cannot find a solution to the following.

I have a few Shared hosting servers using Cpanel. The biggest use of resource is spamd.

Is there a way of setting up a spamd server, ie not using Cpanel so that this server purely does the spam checking then passes it back to which ever Cpanel server it came from.

I have done this using postfix, but I'm new to the whole exim / Cpanel thing.

Spamd Is Constantly Failing

Aug 5, 2008

I have been using my Server for a decent while, All of a sudden of the last month it has decided that it wants to play a game.

"Spamd" keeps failing and automagically restarts.

It restarts and works, But then Fails once again a few hours later. One morning I woke up to 7 error messages with the same service.
By Restarting Exim it resolves the issue but it happens hours later.
I have tried mostly of what I can think of.

Does anyone have any other thoughts on this issue and how it can be resolved?

Spamd - Still Running As Root: User Not Specified With

Jul 29, 2009

I am pretty sure that the following entries in the logs are not good and I would like to resolve this issue. I have been reading on Google for several hours straight looking for answers and have come up short.

Stuck Spamd Processes By User

Feb 18, 2008

i've noticed a number of times in the past few weeks where the spamd process gets stuck (apache 2 server / whm) with a single user name running the process. there is no spam being sent out, no major incoming influx of mail either - the process is just stuck but consumes 100% of cpu and runs for ages before it terminates itself.

for e.g. right now my top output:

2789 <username> 25 0 99 287:44.76 1.3 79760 49m 2288 R spamd child

the 287 is the cumulative CPU time - no way it should be stuck like this.

how i can figure out what's causing this problem?

Nobody_check Killing Spamd Process

Jul 24, 2007

My nobody_check is killing a process that seems to be o.k. but I'm not sure. The process is running /usr/bin/perl-bin which I never heard of. I thought it was /usr/bin/perl

Should I be concerned? Again, I don't know what /perl-bin is.

CPU Usage HIGH - Spamd Child

Dec 3, 2007

I have just moved my sites from shared host to a vps. After several initial problems (cpanel issue, config not set up correctly, memory spikes and sites down every morning due to backup and stats) I thought everything was going to be ok. hmm.

My server load starts off fine first thing (less than 1) then creeps up nearly 1 per hour, ie been 3.5 hours now and it is at 2.57. Sites are ok at the moment but yesterday load got up to nearly 7 and sites were extremely slow.

CPU usage is HIGH for one site and goes up very quickly throughout the day. Yesterday it reached well over 90%. First thing today it was already amber and showing 14%. It is now 70.54% and shows below it :

Top Process %CPU 80.2 spamd child
Top Process %CPU 79.8 spamd child
Top Process %CPU 79.4 spamd child

I have a ticket open and they (Liquid Web) they are not sure what the deal is, but are apparently monitoring it to see if they can isolate the cause of the problem. But that was a couple of days ago and now the ticket is due for closure.

I telephoned them (expensive as I'm in the UK!) and raised my concerns, but was just told that everything looked ok on the vps, cpu usage was in fact not high and to ignore the warnings.

So, I am posting here to see if anybody can help me get to the root of this.

I understand that spamd child is to do with email / spam assassin?

My problem is that this is the first vps I have had and don't have a clue now where to go or what to do.

Anybody understand about spamd child that can explain it to a poor dumb blonde and how to fix it?

Dns Fails Me

Jul 29, 2007

adding my hostname as a domain so that i can get a email admin@hostname.

so i pretty much messed up my dns configs by deleting my main domain and adding it back.

i guess i removed the dns entries of the nameservers together. (main domain meaning globalwebmanager.com, nameservers are ns1 and ns2.globalwebmanager.com, and yes i deleted the entire zone)
[url]shows many errors like LAME nameservers, SPOF, no SOA records.
if you need any details just ask.

how do you fix open dns errors. i tried adding the line recursion no; in /etc/named.conf
and the yum update i did wasn't the culprit right?

Tomcat Fails

Mar 12, 2008

Not sure why, suddenly tomcat is failing

tomcat has failed, please contact the sysadmin (result was "tomcat is not running").

I got that before and after running a forced cpanel upgrade.

I restarted via command line as well.



Its amazing that "tomcat has failed please contact the sysadmin" search yielded no results in wht here.

Restore Db Fails

Aug 31, 2007

root@server [~]# mysql -u divingho_dhadmin -p divingho_divinghols < /home/divingho/mysql/divinghols.sql
Enter password:
ERROR 1044 (42000) at line 11: Access denied for user 'divingho_dhadmin'@'localhost' to database 'divinghols'

The username is right, the password I use is correct. I even deleted, recreated the mysql database and username, still giving the same error. The path to sql file is right and only 68k in size.

Using mysql 4.1
