We have a test box that is a local update server (that our other boxes get the dbs from) that I just upgraded to 0.93. The upgrade works well on my personal workstation, but fails on this box. Any pointers on getting this updating will be appreciated. It was updating ok before the upgrade. Trying to retrieve the daily db via wget resolves the host but hangs before returning any data.
Running freshclam -v, I get the following: # freshclam -v Current working dir is /var/lib/clamav Max retries == 3 ClamAV update process started at Wed May 7 15:20:29 2008 Querying current.cvd.clamav.net TTL: 300 Software version from DNS: 0.93 Retrieving http://db.us.clamav.net/main.cvd Trying to download http://db.us.clamav.net/main.cvd (IP: 64.246.44.108) WARNING: getfile: main.cvd not found on remote server (IP: 64.246.44.108) WARNING: Can't download main.cvd from db.us.clamav.net Trying again in 5 secs...

Update failed. Your network may be down or none of the mirrors listed in freshclam.conf is working. Check http://www.clamav.net/support/mirror-problem for possible reasons. I had blown away all files in /var/lib/clamav prior to running freshclam. It doesn't seem like a DNS problem, since I can do: # host db.us.clamav.net db.us.clamav.net is an alias for db.us.rr.clamav.net. db.us.rr.clamav.net has address 209.170.150.7 db.us.rr.clamav.net has address 64.142.100.50 db.us.rr.clamav.net has address 64.246.44.108 db.us.rr.clamav.net has address 128.121.60.235 db.us.rr.clamav.net has address 194.47.250.218 Running clamconf gives me: # clamconf /etc/freshclam.conf: freshclam directives ------------------------------ LogFileMaxSize = 1048576 LogTime = no LogVerbose = no LogSyslog = no LogFacility = "LOG_LOCAL6" PidFile = "/var/run/clamav/freshclam.pid" DatabaseDirectory = "/var/lib/clamav" Foreground = no Debug = no AllowSupplementaryGroups = no DatabaseOwner = "clamav" Checks = 12 UpdateLogFile not set DNSDatabaseInfo = "current.cvd.clamav.net" DatabaseMirror = "db.us.clamav.net" MaxAttempts = 3 ScriptedUpdates = yes CompressLocalDatabase = no HTTPProxyServer not set HTTPProxyPort not set HTTPProxyUsername not set HTTPProxyPassword not set HTTPUserAgent not set NotifyClamd not set OnUpdateExecute not set OnErrorExecute not set OnOutdatedExecute not set LocalIPAddress not set ConnectTimeout = 30 ReceiveTimeout = 30 Engine and signature databases ------------------------------ Engine version: 0.93 Database directory: /var/lib/clamav main db: Not found daily db: Not found BTW, on my box that's working okay, clamconf returns the last line as saying daily db is also not found, when it really is there. Does clamconf need to be updated to recognize .cld files? -- Brian Bebeau Trustwave http://www.trustwave.com -- Brian Bebeau Trustwave http://www.trustwave.com _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
