Description Quanah Gibson-Mount 2014-05-02 22:42:02 UTC 
If sa-compile cannot write to the user's home dir, it will fall back to using a dir in /tmp.  However, it still logs warnings about its inability to write to the home dir unnecessarily:

cannot create a directory: No such file or directory at /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugin/BodyRuleBaseExtractor.pm line 1033.
cannot write to /opt/zimbra/.spamassassin/sa-compile.cache/rules.body_0 at /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugin/BodyRuleBaseExtractor.pm line 1035.
print() on closed filehandle CACHE at /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugin/BodyRuleBaseExtractor.pm line 1036.
plugin: eval failed: error writing: Bad file descriptor at /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugin/BodyRuleBaseExtractor.pm line 1036.

It would be handy to have an option to say what location to use as the tmp directory...

Fixed warnings. Pretty sure current version doesn't fallback to /tmp so that's not an issue.

If cache write fails, doesn't break anything, it's simply a speedup for next sa-compile run.
