Did you modify or delete any SpamAssassin files? SSH to your server and run this command:
spamd -V
What do you get?

You need to completely uninstall SpamAssassin (SA), and re-install it again. Stop exim, completely un-install SA, then re-install SA and restart exim. Exim will be restartedany way, if chkservd is up and running.
