Every couple of days my logwatch spots this:

ERROR: Problem with internal logger (UpdateLogFile
= /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log).
ERROR: /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log is locked by another process

Restart clears it and freshclam will run, but I get a pile of permission
warnings:

I have four boxes running with the same config so I'm confused as to the
root cause. Before I spend hours on this, anyone have any suggestions?
