Hello all, I'm running amavisd-new-2.6.3-r2 with clamav-0.96.1 on a 64bit hardened Gentoo Base System release 1.12.13 (without SELinux) and going through postfix-2.6.6.
Amavisd-new however is unable to connect to clamav's socket, according to the logs. Sep 14 13:03:30 7of9 amavis[16718]: (16718-07) (!!)ClamAV-clamd av-scanner FAILED: run_av error: Too many retries to talk to /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock (Can't connect to UNIX socket /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock: Connection refused) at (eval 99) line 326.\n Sep 14 13:03:30 7of9 amavis[16718]: (16718-07) (!!)WARN: all primary virus scanners failed, considering backups The socket however has all the correct permissions: File: `/var/run/clamav/clamd.sock' Size: 0 Blocks: 0 IO Block: 4096 socket Device: 903h/2307d Inode: 63373 Links: 1 Access: (0666/srw-rw-rw-) Uid: ( 116/ clamav) Gid: (10024/ clamav) Amavis obvious is part of the correct group, 7of9 tmp # grep amavis /etc/group amavis:x:10021:clamav clamav:x:10024:amavis and clamav does allow other groups to access the _world_ writable socket. # Initialize supplementary group access (clamd must be started by root). AllowSupplementaryGroups yes I've checked all the obvious flags and options but I just can't seem to figure it out. And the frustrating part, I have a remote server setup identically (as far as I can tell) and it works just fine. Any pointers, tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I did try the clamav mailing list, but they couldn't help me any further.
