In this log file I can see correct path pointed to .cvd directory, but it seems that clamscan is looking stil to /var/spool/qmailscan/tmp/host.domain.tld21312312/clamav-424242345/viruses.db for .db file. If I run clamscan as root (via command line) with the same options which are in qmail-queue-scanner.pl ($clamscan_option) everything looks ok.

Hi, I have problem with clamav 0.70 stable. Malformed patter line 13898 (file /var/spool/qmailscan/tmp/....../viruses.db) Incomplete block read cli_cvdload(): Can't unpack CVD file CVD extraction failure
This problem I see just with clamscan. I tried scan (by qmail-scanner) with clamd/clamdscan and this problem did not appear.
I deleted .cvd files and ran freshclam again, but it did not help. I saw
somewhere that clamdscan uses internal (lib) unrar routine and clamdscan
does not know to use external unrar3.x. And I want to check rar files
too. If I understand it, then i have to use clamscan with "--unrar"
option to scan rar files. Is it correct.
Are you still using old style .db files? These can be removed in favor of
the newer .cvd files.

As I wrote I am using .cvd files already. I installed clamav 0.70 stable 4 days ago. After istallation I removed .cvd files and ran freshclam few times again (I was thinking that perhaps .cvd files are incorrectly downloaded or something like this). I googled somewhat and found here: "http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg02282.html" this:
.........
I was getting plenty of error messages like this:
28/08/2003 10:10:13:3361: --output of clamscan was:
LibClamAV Error: cli_calloc(): Can't allocate memory (98 bytes).
calloc_problem: Cannot allocate memory
LibClamAV Error: readdb(): Malformed pattern line 8706 (file
/usr/local/share/clamav/viruses.db).
ERROR: Malformed database.

unknown ClamAV scanner error or memory/resource/perms problem - exit status 50
If you are getting similar permutations on this theme the clamd/clamdscan pairing may
be the way to go for you.

But there is no explanation why to use clamd/clamdscan and what is wrong or how to fix problem with clamscan.
Thanks.

Now I found that clamscan is still looking for viruses.db file. Now I added "--database=/usr/local/share/clamav/" option to clamscan and still the same error message. Clamscan is still looking for .db file(s). In help for clamscan is this: "Load virus database from FILE or load all .db and db2 files from DIR" as decription for option "--database". Question is, how to make it work with .cvd files. Version of clamscan is also 0.70. Reason why I want to use clamscan instead of clamd/clamdscan is that clamd cannot use external .rar files unpacker.
Thanks.
Peter
