I updated my x86 machine day before yesterday, and I noticed two things. The clamav user and group was deleted, and not recreated, and when the makewhatis ran, I got a page full of "zcat: stdout: Broken pipe" entries. What gives with the makewhatis and clamav? Was clamav removed from the software? I encountered no errors when the transaction check and transactions were run.

I've apparently made a mess of clamav. Tried uninstalling it, and excluded it from dag's repo. Now, when I yum install clamav and clamav-server, I'm apparently missing all the libs, data and so forth. Can someone tell me what I need to do to get this back ? I probably blew all the old stuff away during the update or later, and don't have a clue as to why it's not doing

I had clamav-milter working as well as clamd, then for some reason clamd stopped and would not create the socket. After much hair pulling, I finally tracked the problem(s) down to /etc/clamd.conf. After commenting all the stuff out that was providing errors, it is now working again. I had somehow mixed versions from sourceforge and centos, and when I could not get things to update

I suppose it's more of a frustration with myself, but can some kind soul please help me with the procedure to tell yum a package is in fact installed? Here is the output from the command "yum update". # yum update Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories kbs-CentOS-Extras 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 kbs-CentOS-Misc 100%

Hi all, I was about to do an update on my server, but looking at what the output was and here's the output from the beginning with other parts left off. I currently don't even have the clamav server installed, but am using the 0.93 version of clamav-milter. I've never seen yum throw in so many packages that aren't even installed. I understand the dependencies has to be

Hello all, I finally got spamass-milter and clamav-milter running, but have one error I've not been able to determine what is happening. From the log entry I see this line: SYSERR(sa-milt): hash map "Alias0": unsafe map file /etc/aliases.db: Permission denied: 39 Time(s) any pointers here? The 2nd item is with yum. I attempted to update, and wound up getting a fail on a

Folks, I have a bit of a problem and can't seem to figure out what is getting broken or why. I've been pulling my hair out trying to get clamav or clamav-milter to install and permit yum update to continue. What is happening is this: I yum install the clamav package, but when I try to do an update on the system, it constantly returns with an error of a Missing Dependency for clamd

Hello all, I've been trying to get spamassassin and clamav working, but got really confused when I realized there are various incarnations of the software. Originally, I started out with just spamassassin, but learned there is also an SA-milter. Can someone tell me which of the various spam fighting packages i.e., sa, sa-milter, clamav, clamave-milter, and so forth? I ran into

Folks, I just yum'd clamav last night for my mailserver. There do not appear to be any man pages for this package. Is there just web documents on what to do to create the configuration file, or is that already done, and I haven't found it yet? Thanks.. sam

I'm trying to get amavis to play using clamd and tried to follow this: # ### http://www.clamav.net/ ['ClamAV-clamd', \&ask_daemon, ["CONTSCAN {}\n", "/var/run/clamav/clamd"], qr/\bOK$/, qr/\bFOUND$/, qr/^.*?: (?!Infected Archive)(.*) FOUND$/ ], # # NOTE: run clamd under the same user as amavisd, or run it under its own # # uid such as clamav, add

Just looked at the log from the x86_64 machine and I see the same zcat: stdout: Broken pipe in the 00-makewhatis.cron job as on the x86 machine. Did I miss some thread about current updates somewhere? sam -- Sam W.Drinkard -- sam at wa4phy.net NOAA Cooperative Observer http://wa4phy.net Augusta Area Mesonet

Earlier this month I reported a problem in that ClamTK couldn't virus-scan a file. This was cured by following the dev's instructions <quote> If you open up a terminal window and type "ls /var/clamav" (without quotes of course), I'm betting you'll see a variety of files and/or directories in there. If you're up for it, as root type rm /var/clamav/* -rf which

I'm puzzled by such statements as diff /var/clamav/daily.cvd /var/clamav/daily.cvd.rpmnew Binary files /var/clamav/daily.cvd and /var/clamav/daily.cvd.rpmnew differ I thought the point of rpmnew files was so that we could check what has been changed?

Hi folks, Can someone tell me the latest version of clamav-milter x84_64? I just yum installed it but it is version 0.88.2.el4kb, and the version on my server is 0.93. Is the difference between the two due to being different platforms? Thanks.. Sam

Since my power problems that resulted in a re-install I have a problem which I've failed to locate up to now. The logs show daily.cld updated (version: 8950, sigs: 72593, f-level: 38, builder: ccordes) Database updated (510565 signatures) from db.gb.clamav.net (IP: 163.1.3.8) WARNING: Clamd was NOT notified: Can't connect to clamd through /tmp/clamd.socket I've been

ClamAV is installed on my CentOS box. I edited the conf file and assumed all is well. Clearly it isn't. Every day I see in logwatch that my signatures are updated, and the database notified, but if I try to scan a file manually it tells me that my signatures are 55 days old. I tried looking at a how-to, in the hope of identifying the problem, but it is hopelessly out of date, and I

For several days now I've been trying to update clamav from rpmforge without success. Does anyone know what's likely to be the problem? Anne

Don't know if this might be hardware or software related, but it seems that every time I attempt to do a remote reboot of the machine, everything shuts down normally, and it never comes back. Just returned from the co-lo site, and when I plugged the monitor in, it had gone to the point of "rebooting" and hung. This is 4.3 on x-86. Sam -- Sam W.Drinkard -- sam at wa4phy.net

I know, I should not have to ask this question, but it appears that ALL my previous yum.repos.d entries have been trashed, with the only ones left is base, CentOS Media then the mirrors.rpmforge.reo, rhel-mondo.repo, rpmforge.repo, and webmin.repo. I've been bitten by the mixing of repositories before and want to avoid that scenario. Something is amok in the existing, and it throws all

Yesterday and today I've seen clamav set for updating, but missing dependencies. Is this general, or is it a mirror problem? Anne
