I can't find a logical explanation for this, so I thought I'd ask here. I have both clamd and clamav-milter installed on my CentOS 7 machine. For ease of use, I've got bth configured to use one id, 'clamav'. This means I use two different directories, /var/run/clamav and /var/run/clamav-milter, owned by user clamav and set to permissions 711, to hold the socket/pid files. This is all working well, as far as I can tell.
However, I've had a number of reboots recently, and after each one the following happens: * The clamav directory (/var/run/clamav) is deleted. * The clamav-milter directory (/var/run/clamav-milter) is changed to owner clmilt. The conf files do NOT change. Therefore, I get an error (misleading, at that) for clamav-milter. Clamav seems to start, but does not create a socket file, and so the milter can't find it (and can't create its own run file in a directory it doesn't own. Does this make sense to anyone? -Don _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
