When clamav went to 0.98.4, we had to remain on 0.98.1 due to cl_load() failing. Over Christmas I've had time to investigate why. (I'm aware that 0.98.5 is the latest, I'll be trying that out later).
With 0.98.1, we are scanning email on a number of quite small machines with only 416M memory, without problems. When I tried to upgrade (the libraries) to 0.98.4, cl_load() would fail with error 20 "Can't allocate memory". Using a xen guest, I figured I would just increase the memory until I knew how much was needed. I went up to 3Gb, still seeing "cl_load() failed, error 20: Can't allocate memory". Surely this isn't about memory? We're using our own daemon (a la clamd), but that hasn't changed since 2010. Did anything significant change in 0.98.4 that might cause this issue? Any and all hints appreciated. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (0.0°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-devel.html Please submit your patches to our Bugzilla: http://bugs.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
