I did not mean to start the service via systemd but to call like sudo /usr/sbin/clamd -c /path/to/config and see then if the socket has been created in expected location. CheersThanks Tobi, however that didn't work either: chris@localhost:~$ sudo /usr/sbin/clamd -c /etc/clamav/clamd.conf [sudo] password for chris: ERROR: LOCAL: Socket file /run/clamd.socket could not be bound: Permission denied Closing the main socket. ERROR: Can't unlink the socket file /run/clamd.socket*frankly* you need a subfolder *below* /run because when the socket is created *after* drop privileges the daemon has no business to write cirectly below /run * create a subfolder * make sure it has the correct permissions * enuse it's created at boot with systemd-tmpfiles there is a reason i posted you this already: [root@mail-gw:~]$ cat /etc/tmpfiles.d/clamd.conf d /run/clamd 0775 clamscan clamilt that's for re-create folders at boot since /run is tmpfsIf there's nothing in that folder do I make a file? Apologies if dumb question but I'm banging my head and previous upgrades didn't give me problems like this at all. They just worked with my setup as it was
nothing in which folder?the whole point is that you need a folder below /run/ where your clamd stuff lives and that this folder needs to be writeable by the user clamd is supposed to drop it's privileges to
the folder and user depends on the packages of your distribution and "create a subfolder" is just to prevent a needed reboot since tmpfiles is only supposed to run at boot time
no idea how to explain systemd basics here, but your problems are not really clamav specific, it looks like you don't understand the current operating system version and it's tools at the moment and i fear here is not the place to put the pieces together
"I'm banging my head and previous upgrades didn't give me problems like this at all" for me sounds the upgrade path of your distribution or the package of your distribution is just broken and so create a bugreport there while in the meantime downgrade (if you can't downgrade your operating system management needs some re-thinking)
