Summary: Toolbars refuse to work after reset
Initial Comment:
I noticed the toolbar was not working and followed your
instructions about removing it and then I checked the
log file for an error. See the attached log file.

I retrained from scratch but that didn't work either. Then I
decided to take your information about it being a database
issue one step further and went to the folder with the
database files and deleted them all. Then I restarted Outlook,
set up SpamBayes from scratch and the buttons are working
again. You were absolutely correct about the database being
the issue but it seems the files need to be deleted before
retraining. Thanks for the help. I really appreciate it.

joewagner501: have you tried retraining from scratch? Your
problem (and jimmywhited) sounds most like a database
problem (since filtering is still working).
Could you also either post a copy of your most recent log
file here or open a new tracker with it attached?

I have had this same exact issue after using the program for
only two days. At first the buttons worked fine but the last
two days they are not working. The program is still filtering
email but I can't identify items in the junk suspects folder as
being junk or not using the buttons. I have taken all the
steps to remove the buttons and reinstal them but nothing
has worked. I am using XP Pro SP2 and the latest version of
SpamBayes.

I to am having this problem. This seems to be related to, but
not an exact duplicate of bug ID 964537. Email filtering seems
to be working fine; however, if I click <Delete as Spam> or
<Recover From Spam> nothing happnes.
I originally had 1.0rc1 so I upgraded to 1.0rc2 hoping this
would fix the problem. It didn't.
Next I tried deleting the toolbar, per troubleshooting
instructions -- right-click on toolbars, Customize, highlight
spam-bayes, delete, close outlook, reopen outlook so toolbars
would be recreated. This didn't help.
Next I tried renaming outcmd.dat so outlook would reset all the
toolbars and also tried deleting the toolbar after that, which
did not work.
The last thing I tried was retraining the DB with the rebuild
entire DB option checked. I saw the message writing
database, but it never changed after several minutes. I hit
the close button and closed the SpamBayes Manager, but the
toolbars still did not work. I have the logs prior to retraining
the DB and after if you want me to send them (I do not see a
place where I can attach them in this followup addition). I
can also send the DB file if need be.
System Config (I can send a system.nfo file):
Windows XP w/SP-1 applied
Outlook 2002 SP-2

I too am down with SpamBayes because of this.
I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled both SpamBayes
and Outlook, and the "dead" toolbars still exist.
I am getting no spam filtering either.

Another interesting tidbit: Throughout the day I randomly try
the toolbar to see if it works, but it never does. However
today, on one occasion it did it work. It has not worked since.

I sent the db file to your other address. I retrained the db.
however I don't know if it was successful as the Dialog box
said "Saving: Writing database" but it never changed the msg.
I don't know if this is typical behavior or not. After doing this
there appears to be no change in the functioning of the
program, meaning that it is still filtering spam although my
guess is that it is somehow not doing it as effectively as it
should becuase the number of spam msgs that are appearing
in my inbox is significant (approx 20) as opposed to 3 or 4
when it was working flawlessly.

I just learned that the max file size is 256K and this file is
almost 1 meg zipped. I could not locate an email address to
send it to you directly. Please advise.

For some reason I got an invalid file type error when
submitting the db file using its original name so I am trying it
again zipped.

Here is the file you requested. However you should know that
I the first thing I did after I tried all the toolbar fixets was to
retrain the database. It had no effect. I am going to retrain
it now. Do you want a copy of the db file after I train it?

This appears to be a duplicate of
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=807217&group_id=61702&atid=498103,
which mentions the same error that appears in your log. The
only solution I know of at the moment is to go to the
"Training" tab, and do a complete re-train. If you could
possibly attach a copy of your "default_bayes_database.db"
before you do this, I would appreciate it - either mail it
directly to me, or attach it here.
However, that doesn't explain why you can't use the
toolbars. The only reference to the toolbars is "Creating
new SpamBayes toolbar to host our buttons", which is what we
expect after clobbering outcmd.dat. Are there any messages
regarding toolbars in subsequent startups?

Toolbar Still Does Not Work...This problem developed while I
was running version 6.xx. I installed the latest version
avaliable. No change in symptoms. I closed Outlook and
deleted the file outlook.dat and rebooted the computer.
Symptoms remain the same: It is filtering messages but the
toolbar does not work.

Here is some more information. SpamBayes is filtering
messages. The toolbar does not work. I have tried all the
fixets listed including deleting the file outlook.dat. Toolbar
still does not work. If there are tests you would like me to
run to help, please let me know. w_hughes
