Anacron Job error: gzip: /etc/MailScanner/phishing.safe.sites.conf.master.gz: unexpected end of file

[ericarcher57]

Been getting repeated errors for the daily Anacron job:

gzip: /etc/MailScanner/phishing.safe.sites.conf.master.gz: unexpected end of file.

Any Ideas on how to resolve?

Have you tried deleting the file and letting it run again?

Getting this error as well lately.

If you open the phishing.safe.sites.conf.master.gz file in a text editor it reads: 301 Moved Permanently (surrounded by some html).

So it seems the file has moved to another url and the script that downloads it doesn't understand the redirect and instead downloads the html.

I'm getting same kind of error:

/etc/cron.daily/mailscanner:

gzip: /etc/MailScanner/phishing.safe.sites.conf.master.gz: not in gzip format

Delete the file, should go away.

Deleting the file does indeed fix the issue. The next update cycle works as intended.
