Using clamd devel-20040304 on FreeBSD 4.9 On several occasions now we've noticed that when clamd checks and reloads the virus database current clamdscan's hang and then time out.
This causes some real problems on a process that uses clamdscan as it thinks clamd is dead and then just bombs out. Last messages in the clamd.log are: Tue Mar 9 19:59:40 2004 -> SelfCheck: Database modification detected. Forcing reload. Tue Mar 9 19:59:40 2004 -> Reading databases from /usr/local/share/clamav Tue Mar 9 20:06:54 2004 -> Database correctly reloaded (20426 viruses) Tue Mar 9 20:06:54 2004 -> /var/tmp/scavs/22217/5/msg-22226-2.bin: Worm.SomeFool.Gen-1 FOUND When checking clamd manually it appears to be running ok... It just whenever a database reload happens at the time either a clamdscan is in progress or one is trying to initiate during a reload, the clamdscan process just hangs... Any ideas on how to fix this or if more recent devel code has addressed this issue? -- Robert Blayzor, BOFH INOC, LLC [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP: http://www.inoc.net/~dev/ Key fingerprint = 1E02 DABE F989 BC03 3DF5 0E93 8D02 9D0B CB1A A7B0 "Bear left."
