I'm having some issues verifying a clamav install under FC 22.

 

I am doing some testing using clamdscan and have been running into some kind
of permission error as far as I can tell.  For now, I have set selinux to
permissive to eliminate that as an issue.

 

I have an eicar.com file that I have scanned with clamscan and it verifies
that one file has been scanned and that one virus has been found.

 

Next, I want to submit a scan of eicar.com using clamdscan.

 

[root@zzz tmp]# ls -l eicar.com

-rw-rw-r--. 1 clamscan clamscan 68 Sep  4  2006 eicar.com

[root@zzz tmp]#

 

 

[root@ears tmp]# clamdscan -c /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf /tmp/eicar.com

/tmp/eicar.com: lstat() failed: No such file or directory. ERROR

 

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------

Infected files: 0

Total errors: 1

Time: 0.001 sec (0 m 0 s)

[root@ears tmp]# ls -l eicar.com

-rw-rw-r--. 1 clamscan clamscan 68 Sep  4  2006 eicar.com

[root@ears tmp]# clamdscan -c /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf /tmp/eicar.com

/tmp/eicar.com: lstat() failed: No such file or directory. ERROR

 

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------

Infected files: 0

Total errors: 1

Time: 0.001 sec (0 m 0 s)

 

Note that the file is not found.  If I scan the directory instead:

 

[root@ears tmp]# clamdscan -c /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf /tmp

/tmp: OK

 

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------

Infected files: 0

Time: 0.000 sec (0 m 0 s)

You have new mail in /var/spool/mail/dan

[root@ears tmp]#

 

No infected file is found and no errors.

 

clamd is running as clamscan.

 

Ready for any suggestions about what is happening here.  I've been working
on this for a few days.

 

Thank you.
