I checked the permission is "clamav"
It means the "clamav" user does not have write-permissions in /var/run/. And no, you should not give clamav those permissions; instead, create a sub-dir, if you will, underneath, like /var/run/clamav/, chmod 700 this dir, and chown clamav:clamav, and put the pid and socket in there. - Mark _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
