I am experiencing the same problems. We have two quad CPU E450's running Solaris 9 handling the incomming mail on our domains. These servers are generally very busy.
I initially installed clamav 0.90 with experimental code enabled. Compiled in this way clamd would crash every 2 minutes without any indication in the logs as to what the problem was. I then installed 0.90 without experimental code. Compiled in this way it would crash every 8 minutes or so. I then reverted to 0.88.7 which runs without any problems. When 0.90.1 was released I installed it and experienced the exact same problems (dying within a couple of minutes). No log rotations were occurring at the time that it died. I installed 0.90.1 on our outbound server which is also running Solaris 9. This server is a lot quieter than our incomming servers. On this server clamd will die intermitantly (at busy times) but not as frequently as on our inbound servers. >From what I can see on our quad CPU machines, using top to view system performance clamd eventually uses 100% CPU and then dies. I hope someone can help with this as I would really like to upgrade to the 0.90 release. I have another server running Suse. Although this server is also not that heavily loaded I have not experienced any problems on that platform. _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
