I'm content with it running as a daemon, I thought perhaps this would
solve the issue for others who are running it as a cron job and the
db refuses to update.

You're running under Tiger now? I'm about to upgrade one of my systems and
would like to try this. Anomalous behavior like this usually bites you
later. You did check the directory perms the data are in and are certain
there's but one version of freshclam installed? (mandatory stupid
questions :-)

There is only one version on the system, also, search the archives for the instructions to build ClamAV, I made a simple 3 part post that explains the process of building/updating and if you don't follow it you wont be able to build it.

I saw that - thanks for going to the trouble. I did upgrade to Tiger today on two different systems and no surprise, ClamAV does not compile on either whereas it did compile fine just prior to the upgrade. And, the build from the previous OS runs fine in Tiger. I'll follow your lead on this and see where it goes - I got a different error than yours, though.

The issue boils down to syntax and format, there are several, fixing the easy ones leaves you with the zziplib problem, the only solution that works is what is outlined in the 3 part e-mail I posted, many have tried other routes but the one I provided is the best overall solution I've been told.
