[Clamav-users] freshclam fails to update

[Geoff Hardin]

I built the latest version of clamav available (v0.65) on two separate 
Solaris 8 systems.  On one system, everything installed fine and I was 
able to download the latest virus databases without a problem.  I logged 
into the second host, used the same source and built everything.  On 
this host, everything but freshclam works fine.  I tried searching the 
net and the documentation for this error without much luck.  I am using 
clamscan in scripts so I didn't have a clamav.conf file set up on the 
"broken" host, so I copied over my conf file from the working host. 
Still no luck.

Any ideas?

# freshclam --version
freshclam / ClamAV version 0.65
# freshclam --verbose
Current working dir is /usr/dslocal/share/clamav
