Hi All, I'm using the following: clamd / ClamAV version devel-20040310 ClamAV version devel-20040310, clamav-milter version 0.67j FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE-p3
though, I confirmed this problem was also present as far back (maybe farther) as 0.66 from a little over a month ago. What seems to be happening is clamd reports that the maximum log size has been exceeded (I have it set to the 1MB default, which lasts a day or two). Relevant configuration: LogFile /var/log/clamav/clamd.log #LogFileUnlock # Maximal size of the log file. Default is 1 Mb. #LogFileMaxSize 2M LogTime #LogSyslog LogVerbose I enabled verbose logging in an attempt to see what was going on. Once the maximum size has been exceeded, not only does clamd stop logging, it stops responding. Up to ten instances of clamav-milter eventually start, all waiting for clamd to respond, and mail delivery gradually grinds to a halt. Load averages on the system go from their usual ~1.0 to 12+ in a matter of about ten minutes. Shell access is noticeably slow, but still reasonably responsive. The problem persists until I kill and restart clamd and clamav-milter, and rotate the log. Now, I know that I could work around this problem by disabling the size limit and rotating the log file more frequently, but I don't think what I've described, above, would be considered ideal behaviour in any circumstance.
