Hi all,

I've recently installed clamav along with qmail-scanner on RedHat 9. Everything's working fine except that clamav is taking up all disk space on '/tmp with it's temporary database update files. As soon as '/tmp' is full it cannot download any more updates and spits out an error which prevents qmail from delivering any mail. I've currently setup a daily cron job to clear out all clamav-* folders on '/tmp', but I'm hoping there's a way of changing how clamav handles temporary files in it's configuration. Any help much appreciated.


Sounds like debugging is enabled.

Debugging is turned off in clamd.conf. Here is the directory structure of one of the clamav folders in /tmp:


clamav-e3b114abc93db32
|
--- COPYING (17992)
|
--- main.db (3794792)
| --- main.hdb (136626)
|
--- main.ndb (30528)



It looks to me like these are virus database files. They are all owned by the user 'apache' which seems a little strange to me.
