This makes sense. The "accept()" error (which isn't complete for some reason) is just something that gets logged. The reason why clamd terminates is the failure during reloading of the database which is due to the failure of dup(). And this in turn is probably (as you said in your previous email) because the process runs out of file descriptors. I get: |$ ls -1 /proc/$(pidof clamd)/fd/ |wc -l |9 After "clamdscan /usr/share/clamav-testfiles/*" (from the clamav-testfiles package) it remains at nine. I bet that you have one test file which keeps the number of descriptors growing. Could you please figure out which one it is? > and returns 1. Sebastian
