  * libclamav: mbox: updated message.c, text.c (Nigel)

  * freshclam: fixed a typo - missing 2 in "nodb" in (should be "nodb2") in
   one clause. That was causing a strange behaviour in some
   situations. Patch by Damien Curtain <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
  * freshclam: new option --user (-u) USER - run as USER instead of the
   default 'clamav' user. Patch by Damien Curtain.
  * freshclam: switch to a mirror when downloaded md5 check sum doesn't
   match the database (errno 54, man freshclam)
  * freshclam: mirrors.txt - added clamav.rulez.pl mirror managed by
   £ukasz Jaros³aw Mozer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
  * clamd, libclamav, clamscan: fixed a bug introduced in 0.60 - closedir(dd)
was called even when dd was not correctly opened
  * libclamav: mbox - patch for a segfault with some nasty messages which
   break RFC1521 (Nigel).

Please check the latest snapshot (with ScanMail enabled ;)), there was a bug
in clamd/libclamav/clamscan.

I have installed latest snapshot and assigned a guy to monitor it while I go
to sleep ;-)

Thanks for the quick fix. I hope I will be lucky this time round.

[clamav-users] clamd dropping out with no aparent reason

2003-06-25 Thread Lynn Duerksen


Running OpenBSD3.3, Postfix, amavisd-new-20030616, spamassassin, clamd.

Everything seems to run great for awhile and until the maillog indicates
"Can't connect to UNIX socket /var/amavisd/clamd:" and by then the
dameon process is no longer running.

Sometimes it runs for a couple days, sometimes a couple of hours.

I have to shutdown amavisd, delete /var/amavisd/clamd, startup clamd
again and then amavisd.  Then it works for awhile, then I have to go
through it again.

Any suggestions on how to track this down would be appreciated.

Thanks

LAD

I have always had ScanMail enabled. BTW, I need to understand ScanMail. What
exactly does it do? Why do you suspect ScanMail could be the problem?

I will install 0.60, disable ScanMail, watch for some time, then report back
on my observation.

Thanks alot.

In the case that viruses.db2 does not exist on your local machine, but
viruses.db does, touch the file /var/lib/clamav/viruses.db2 and chown
it to the clamav user on your system. A fix for this will be included
in the next update.
