Hi all, I’m suddenly having problems with what seems to be my
clamav installation – clamav 0.90.1-3etch8 on Debian 4.0 Etch i386
(kernel 2.6.18-6-686-18etch1). Things have been fine until about a week
or two ago when my server started bombing-out (no access at all, and I would
have to physically reboot the machine). Anyway, I’ve been getting a
lot of this type of problem: Feb 12 06:51:16 server postfix/smtpd[5742]: disconnect from
unknown[123.123.123.123] Feb 12 06:51:24 server amavis[5579]: (05579-06) (!)
/usr/bin/clamscan is taking longer than 315 s and will be killed Feb 12 06:51:24 server amavis[5579]: (05579-06) (!) killing
process [6110] running /usr/bin/clamscan Feb 12 06:51:24 server amavis[5579]: (05579-06) (!) run_av:

av-scanner FAILED: /usr/bin/clamscan timed out at (eval 44) line 462. I’ve searched Google and reluctantly changed ownership
and permissions (from clamav to amavis), but that obviously did not seem to be
the problem. Does anybody know what could be wrong, and what I need to do
to fix this problem? When it gets that far, my mail server (Postfix) is
not receiving mail. Thanks in advance for any/all help! Robert |
