SpamAssassin error on restart

CentOS Linux 6.3 fully patched
3.94.gpl GPL (May apply to 'pro' too - I don't want to try as the servers are live!)

On the initial screen "status", if I go SA restart or stop I get "Failed to stop service : initctl: Unknown job: spamassassin"

Status: 
Active

Howdy -- Jamie may need to take a look at that, it sounds like there's an issue with how it's being restarted.

However, in the meantime, you can always restart SpamAssassin manually from the command line, by running this command:

/etc/init.d/spamassassin restart

Thanks - yes that does work. I do see this though:

Starting spamd: Subroutine IO::Socket::INET6::sockaddr_in6 redefined at /usr/share/perl5/Exporter.pm line 67. at /usr/share/perl5/IO/Socket/INET6.pm line 21

The error about initctl can happen on systems that use a mix of the Upstart and init.d boot systems. The next Webmin release will handle this better..

The error when starting spamd manually looks more like a warning to me?
