Spamassassin spamd doesn't start on boot

[vayu]

I recently installed Spamassassin and it's working well but I have to start it everytime on boot up with "service spamassassin start".  A ps grep for spamd before doesn't show it loaded but after does and then it works fine for the rest of the day.  There is a spamassassin.service in /lib/systemd/system/ and there's also a script at /etc/init.d/spamassassin.  Could someone help me get spamassassin working automatically on start up?

Please show us the content of the scripts/service-fiels you mention above. Do they have an [install]-section?

Here's the systemd script:
cat /lib/systemd/system/spamassassin.service

Code: [Select]

[Unit]
Description=Perl-based spam filter using text analysis

[Service]
Type=forking
PIDFile=/var/run/spamassassin.pid
EnvironmentFile=-/etc/default/spamassassin
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/spamd -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamassassin.pid $OPTIONS
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Here's the init script:
cat /etc/init.d/spamassassin | siduction-paste
http://paste.siduction.org/20140814141404

Normally the Install-section in the servicefile should work, so if you not only start it (that's one shot only) but enable it (that's kind of installation) with

Code: [Select]

systemctl enable spamassassin.service
it should be loaded by multi-user.target from then on.

Code: [Select]

systemctl enable spamassassin.service


Thanks! That worked.
