I just noticed we are still running Spam Filter v.1.1.2.124 so this problem might have been resolved Basicly our set up is that Spam Filter receives the intial email for SPAM filtering, it then passes it on to 07/16/03 00:14:46:734 -- (254) Connection from: 111.111.111.111 - Originating country : United States |

Jeff,
I am going to let LogSat support answer this one but, I run almost exactly as you do and I have to say that, in my experience, "all bets are off" when you get that low on drive space. I can't even inagine running with out at least 1-2 GIG of free work space. SpamFilter as well as WebShield both "build" the inbound message on disk. One 15-20 meg message and you are toast. I have seen up to 300meg of temp storage used by WebShield and that was just when I happened to be looking at it. I just took a "snapshot" of my BACKUP server and Sendmail is using 131MB of temp space, WebShield, 21MB and SpamFilter is a 1KB ... nothing really queing at the moment. However, I am using 20 times that for my log files. I think your first priority should be to try to get MUCH more dirve space .... unless I read you message wrong. Regards, Dan S.

Jeff, The new build .178 fixes sevaral Access Violation and Invalid Pointer errors that were occurring. At first sight it does not seem that the Exception you received is related to Webshield maxing out, it appears to be more related the the general Exceptions that were fixed with .178. If you update and still experience similar problems please do let us know so we can do further investigations. Roberto Franceschetti |

Hi Dan, Thanks for the response. In our case it was an unrelated log file that was about to fill up one drive, and possibly old reg setting of Mcafee mistakenly monitoring that same drive since it had bee reinstalled to a second drive that had over 2GBs free. Both of those two problems have been corrected to prevent a reoccurance under those conditions in the future, but we still ended up with several Invalid pointer operation(s) that looks like the messages where lost. |

Hello Reberto,
Hopefully this particular problem won't occur again, at least under these conditions and a the new .178 build. It was probably just a coincidence then that the drive filled up about the same time. We have only been running the filter for about 2 months so don't have a lot of history to go by, but after reviewing the logs the errors didn't start cropping up until 7/15/03 at about 8am, they appeared intermittent during the day then what seemed to be a total shutdown a just before midnight where no mail was getting through or bounced. Thanks, Jeff |
