Many thanks for this. I amended to give the container 4GB and that worked.

Kind regards,

Sam Smith

Hi Sam,

I suspect your container doesn't have enough RAM.  The process your log 
describes is where Freshclam tests a new database by loading it into memory.  
If ClamD is already running with loaded signatures, that may use upwards of 2.5 
to 3GB total.

You can also change the freshclam.conf settings to disable database 
load-testing.  When ClamD reloads with updated databases, the default behavior 
is for it to load in the new one and then unload the old one so scans can 
continue during the loading process.  You can also change this to disable 
concurrent database reloads in the clamd.conf file so it doesn't use twice as 
much RAM as normal during the reload.  However it will have a gap where all 
scans are blocked during the reload.

My recommendation is to allocate 4GB of RAM or more for your container.

Regards,
Micah

Subject: [Clamav-devel] Critical Bug Report - Docker Image Crashing

Good morning, I am using the standard Docker image for a client. This
morning's anti-virus update is crashing Docker during update. I
re-downloaded the image, and re-ran the process. I assume this is
affecting many users - final lines of output are below -

|Downloading database patch # 26577...|

|Time:    0.1s, ETA:    0.0s [========================>]   15.21KiB/15.21KiB|

 ...|

|copying response body from Docker: unexpected EOF|

Please advise?

Kind regards,

Sam Smith
