[clamav-users] Need Help

[Siranjeevi]

Hi All,

 I am working with ClamAV for nearly 2 months. Now i am trying to scan the
files which are larger than 30 MB breaks in the middle and getting an error "
net.taldius.clamav.ScannerException: Error while initializing clamd data
channel".

 I have used the API from the following website link :
 
http://nsinfra.blogspot.in/2011/06/java-api-to-detect-virus-using-clamav.html

 It is working fine and i could get results for the files which are of less
than 30 MB. So, please let me know the root cause for the issue.

 I would be thankful if you could help me in this regard.

Re: [clamav-users] What is the maximum file size ClamAV supports ??

[Siranjeevi]

Hi All,

 I changed the items in clamd.conf

 MaxScanSize = "157286400"
 MaxFileSize = "104857600"

 But Still, the changes are not reflected in clamscan. I couldn't scan
large files which is of 75MB in size.

 Please help me out.

 I didn't expect such a great response by you guys. Really ClamAV has so
many active members who are contributing very well for its growth.

 I am a newbie. May be my questions seems to be silly. Please consider my
question and I am expecting your replies.

 Thank You.

[Siranjeevi]

Hi Todd,

 Thanks for explanation. Its really helpful for me to understand. Actually
i have tried with clamdscan only. Clamscan command is working perfectly. I
have struggled nearly 10 times and installed the ClamAV in my Cent OS 6. I
have tried to install in many ways like using rpm, tar, and at last done
with yum install.

 I am learning a lot from you guys. Thanks for replies. You people are
really more dynamic than i ever expected. I am getting replies from
different guys and it sounds good.

 Can i ask more questions over here know ??

[clamav-users] eicar_com.zip is not scanned inside a rar file

[Siranjeevi]

Hi All,

 I am testing to get the scan report for zip, war, rar and other archive
types.

 When i do scan eicar_com.zip alone, Clamdscan shows the result
as:*/root/clamav/eicar_com.zip: Eicar-Test-Signature FOUND
*

 But when i put it in zip and scan it in the way, it is passing the result.
Whether clamav supports scanning zip, rar and other archive file types.

 Please give me reasons why it is not scanned.

Re: [clamav-users] eicar_com.zip is not scanned inside a rar file

[Siranjeevi]

 I found out one reason that i have added the eicar_com.zip file inside a
33MB zip file. So clamdscan was unable to scan.

 I have Made changes in /etc/clamd.conf as follows :

LogFile /var/log/clamav/clamd.log
LogFileMaxSize 10M
LogTime yes
LogSyslog yes
DatabaseDirectory /var/lib/clamav
PidFile /var/run/clamav/clamd.pid
TemporaryDirectory /var/tmp
LocalSocket /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock
FixStaleSocket yes
TCPSocket 3310
TCPAddr <*Linux_Box_IP*>
MaxConnectionQueueLength 30
User clamav
AllowSupplementaryGroups yes
ScanPE yes
ScanELF yes
DetectBrokenExecutables yes
ScanOLE2 yes
ScanPDF yes
ScanMail yes
ScanPartialMessages yes
ScanHTML yes
ScanArchive yes
ArchiveBlockEncrypted no
MaxScanSize 0
MaxFileSize 0
MaxFiles 0


I want to scan all type of file extension. And i have no size limits
because i am confident about the users who are registered in my website.
Please help me out configuring the settings. I need to scan recursively
inside the directories for all files.

When i do changes in clamd.conf, then it should be reflected in clamdscan
know.

Thanks in advance. :)

Yes Bowie. I could understand the concept behind this now.. Thanks for the
information. I will try to do it some other way. If the status hasVirus is
true, i will go the actual location of attachments and delete it through
the actual linux cmds.

Thank You Benny as well.

[clamav-users] ClamAV is not detecting virus

[Siranjeevi]

Hi All,

 I have added the eicar_com zip file inside a rar file. When i scan it
with clamav it is passing as *'OK'*. Another case i have added the same
eicar_com zip file inside another TestScan zip file. But it is successful
scanned and got an indication that *"Eicar-Test-Signature FOUND"*.

But when i do both the test cases in the google mail attachment it is
saying like *Virus Detected! *and I was unable to attach those files.

 Please give me the reason for it. Is google using some other Anti-Virus ??

  I guess the problem is with the file type. ClamAV is not scanning the
zip files inside a rar file. Being a new developer i need to know it
clearly.

As i mentioned in my previous mail the same here. I have tried with both
clamscan and clamdscan. Both giving output as "OK".

I have added the eicar_com zip file inside a rar file. When i scan it with
clamav it is passing as *'OK'*. Another case i have added the same
eicar_com zip file inside another TestScan zip file. But it is successful
scanned and got an indication that *"Eicar-Test-Signature FOUND"*.

My question is very clear : Clam is not scanning the rar file which
contains virus(which is in the form of zip file inside to it).

Re: [clamav-users] clamd scalability

[Siranjeevi]

Clamd is a deamon process which can handle as many threads simultaneously.


You can configure this in clamd.conf file like this :

# Maximum number of threads running at the same time.
# Default: 10
MaxThreads 50
