Hello list, since yesterday we see a odd behaviour of clamd of some of our ubuntu16.04 servers (0.100.2+dfsg-1ubuntu0.16.04.1). clamd is not really starting up, it stays in top with 100% cpu usage for infinite time and opens no socket. signatur-files conf etc. is all ok, i compared with working servers. Also with debug option there is no useful entry in logs. now the joke: To see what happens i try to strace clamd to get a hint: strace -f /usr/sbin/clamd --foreground=true > out 2>&1 I see a lot of read-commands at first when clamd is reading signatures. After that clamd works the normal way, opens tcp-socket, less cpu usage and waits for connects.
I can reproduce this of some servers. started by systemd > endless 100%cpu and no startup. started manual by strace -> normal behaviour. What is happening here? Any idea to fix this?
