Hello!

I rebooted my CentOS 7 mail server last night and all of a sudden clamd is refusing to start - it burns CPU for a couple of minutes and then gives up. I've now narrowed it down as much as I could and it seems there is a problem loading daily.cvd/daily.cld.

I started by removing all unofficial signatures, which didn't help. Then I proceeded to remove all signatures completely and ran freshclam -v, upon which it successfully loaded (before daily.cvd was downloaded). Unfortunately when it downloaded daily.cvd it broke again.

It loads perfectly with main.cvd, bytecode.cvd and the rest of the unofficial signatures, but as soon as daily.cvd appears, it fails.

It gets more interesting. If I start clamd without daily.cvd and then run freshclam and wait for the 600 second signature check to catch the new daily, it actually loads them.

Jul 24 14:43:30 orc clamd[25482]: SelfCheck: Database modification detected. Forcing reload.
Jul 24 14:43:32 orc clamd[25482]: Reading databases from /var/lib/clamav
Jul 24 14:46:21 orc clamd[25482]: Database correctly reloaded (6392516 signatures)

So the problem exists only when completely (re)starting clamd.

Logs are below.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

This is where it stalls with daily.cvd. If I remove daily.cvd and restart, it proceeds nicely.
