I have downloaded Clamav source tar.gz version 0.91.2. After having unpacked it and installed it with the following commands: ~$ ./configure --prefix=home/alessandro/clamav --disable-clamav ~$ make ~$ make install [here /home/alessandro is my home path], and having created the clamav user with the following commands: ~# groupadd clamav ~# useradd -g clamav -s /bin/false -c "Clam AntiVirus" clamav and having removed the Example voice in the ~/clamav/etc/clamd.conf ~/clamav/etc/freshclam.conf files; when I finally launch freshclam: ~/clamd/bin/freshclam I get the following output: ClamAV update process started at Fri Nov 30 18:20:25 2007 main.cvd is up to date (version: 44, sigs: 133163, f-level: 20, builder: sven) ERROR: chdir_inc: Can't create directory daily.inc WARNING: Incremental update failed, trying to download daily.cvd ERROR: getfile: Can't create new file ./clamav-3c8ba724e5b8707cfa7172191a8a7a46 in /home/alessandro/clamav/share/clamav Hint: The database directory must be writable for UID 1000 or GID 1000 ERROR: Can't download daily.cvd from database.clamav.net LibClamAV Error: Database Directory: /home/alessandro/clamav/share/clamav not locked What should I have to do to fix it?
