 ° Hi <snip>
 ° /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl -g
 ° 
 ° I get:
 ° 
 ° perlscanner: generate new DB file
 ° ERROR: incorrect format on line 82 - skipped
 ° perlscanner: total of 9 entries.

I tried using the Sourceforge list-search for qmail-scanner a minute ago, and 
it returns blank pages instead of results, so that does make it difficult to 
find answers. :)

Anyway - this error is definately covered in the archive.. I would use the 
MARC archive of the Qmail-Scanner list:

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=qmail-scanner-general&r=1&w=2

If you search there for "ERROR: incorrect format on line 82", you'll get at 
least one post about this (plus a followup answer).  

It is trying to read the quarantine-attachments.txt file, then generate a new 
db file from that.  On line 82 of /var/spool/qmailscan/quarantine-
attachments.txt, there are some spaces instead of tabs; it's expecting tabs 
between fields, so it chokes and gives you this error message.

If you open the file in pico, you can press control-c to see what line # 
you're on.  If you open the file in vi, you can just type:

:82 (including the : mark) to jump to line 82.

Retype the line, but with tabs instead of spaces.  Save the file, and try to 
regenerate the db again.  The error should go away.  Is it possible for 
someone to fix the copy of qmail-scanner saved on Sourceforge, so the error 
goes away?  This problem has been talked about/known for a while. :)

Hope this helps,

-J (eagerly awaiting Qmail-Scanner v2 :)
