I was able to manually download daily.cvd and main.cvd, and I placed these
files in the
/var/lib/clamav directory, with the following permissions:
[root@centos clamav]# ls -al
total 162524
drwxr-xr-x 2 clam clam 4096 Jul 15 22:01 .
drwxr-xr-x. 49 root root 4096 Jul 15 03:08 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 clam clam 48510215 Jul 15 20:44 daily.cvd
-rw-r--r-- 1 clam clam 117892267 Jul 15 20:44 main.cvd
-rw------- 1 clam clam 468 Jul 15 22:01 mirrors.dat
I was hoping on a reboot that clamav would start working, it didn't, here is
the error I get now:

I enabled logging when clamav is running, hence the debug info above. I still
am getting the
malformed database issue even when directly downloading the files using wget
from the clamav.net
site.
I also verified that the clamav package was good, here is that command and the
result:
[root@centos jhart]# rpm -V clamav-0.100.0-1.el6.i686
S.5....T. c /etc/freshclam.conf
Can you see any issues above, or point me to something else to try. I was
figuring that maybe rpm
would tell me I got a bad package and I'd reapply it, but I don't think that is
the case.
Do you want my freshclam,conf parameters?
thanks for the help. I've tried just about everything I know to do and have
been able to research.
Jay
