Could I have a bad setting in the freshclam.conf?
Why should the milter be affected by freshclam? Its only purpose is
to
interface between your MTA and clamd.
As long as clamd is up and running, the milter should not be
influenced
by freshclam.
I agree and my last post states it is not related, just a
coincidence that it fails at the same time interval as the freshclam
update. While freshclam was stopped, clamav-milter continued to fail
at 10 minutes after the hour.
Thanks, Jim
Well still have not found the root cause of the problem but armed with
the above information that it is failing at 10 min after the hour, I
have reset the cron job to restart clamav-milter at 12 min after the
hour....... instead of on the 1/4 hour
It's not necessarily a coincidence. Perhaps the machine is resource-starved
while freshclam is at work. Do the crashes coincide only with those
freshclam runs which actually download fresh sigs?

Hi John,
Thanks but I having stopped the cron job so that freshclam was not
running, clamav-milter still crashed at 10 min after the hour. Crash may
not be the correct word. What I get is mail rejected by sendmail due to
clamav-milter being dead but subsys locked......
Thanks, Jim
