Thanks very much

the problem was with the permission on /usr/bin/reformime

I simply chmod -s /usr/bin/reformime and all is well

perhaps a FAQ ???

If i run clamd as root then all scanning happens and mail is processed. If I run clamd as qscand ( chown -Rf qscand:clamav /var/clamav/ and chown -Rf qscand:clamav /var/run/clamav/ ) then scanning fails with clam complaining that it can open /var/spool/qmailscan/tmp/cen.8u9sd8987d9s/dir.


Doing chown alone won't make clamd run as qscand. Did you alter
/usr/local/etc/clamav.conf too?


Hi,

I have had same problem until some day ....
Clamav must turn under the same user of qmailscanner, qcand.qscand
If you use a rpm package of Clamav, remember:
1) service clamd stop
2) chown -R qscand.qscand /var/run/clamav/
3) chown -R qscand.qscand /var/lib/clamav/
4) chown -R qscand.qscand /var/log/clamav/
5) Into /etc/clamd.conf, setting qscand in section User
6) cp /etc/clamd.conf /etc/clamav.conf
7) Into /etc/freshclam.conf, setting "DatabaseOwner" qscand
8) O.K., service clamav start, and antivirus are ready to work with
qmail-scanner.

Check a permission file on the Maildrop package.
You use a rpm package of Maildrop?
Some version are bad file permission, set on root.qmail of all files in
/usr/bin after install of Maildrop
Important is set bin.bin REFORMIME, because qmail-scanner call it to
split messagges and
attachments ....
Therefore:

chown bin.bin /usr/bin/reformime
(To say true, I have correct a spec file of Maildrop package, rebuild
with corrections,
and re-install, but I think with new reformime setting permission would
have to work ....)

Now, You can test all!

Bye,

Enrico
