Updated info (01/23): Problem with /etc/cron.daily/spamassassin

I apologize for casting my shadow in the forum so soon after my last issue, but this is one that I have no idea how to fix.

I get mail every day from the Cron Daemon.

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
[Sun Jan 18 01:20:08 2015] [warn] NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.2:80 has no VirtualHosts
/etc/cron.daily/spamassassin:

channel: attempt to clean up failed extraction also failed!
sa-update failed for unknown reasons

Does anyone know what this is about and how to fix it for the cron job to complete?

Thanks, Cowboy

Howdy,

It looks like the SpamAssassin cron job isn't completing properly.

What is the output of this command:

ls -la /var/lib/spamassassin/3.003002/updates_spamassassin_org/
