I'm running clamd and clamav-milter on a few CentOS 5.2 boxes and have noticed the last few weeks that clamav-milter has been dying on Sunday nights...
This seems to have started with 0.94.1, and I've just upgraded to 0.94.2 this
morning.
Basically, when logrotate does its weekly run, it executes this:
/var/log/clamav/clamd.log {
missingok
notifempty
create 644 clamav clamav
postrotate
killall -HUP clamav-milter 2>/dev/null || :
endscript
}
Once this is HUPed, clamav-milter fails.
doing a "service clamav-milter status" resulted in:
# service clamav-milter status
clamav-milter dead but subsys locked
# echo $?
2
Starting the service works fine and it goes until next sunday.
This logrotate HUP of clamav-milter seems to have been working ok for
months, but only has failed in the last 3 (?) weeks.
clamav-milter 0.94.2 is still exhibiting this behaviour if I HUP
it.
Should I be able to HUP it, or should I be fixing my logrotate?
