Hi,
Please help - I am near desperation. I am trying to configure an Ubuntu
8.04.3 server on a Xen VPS that only has 128MB of RAM, it runs mysql
pdns and postfix. I have tried to run clamav on it and everything is
fine except for clamd. Is this because I have too little ram?
I have tried the package maintainers version and have now compiled and
installed the latest version (0.95.3) from source both result in the
same thing. When I run clamd it just hangs, the longer I leave it the
more likely that I have to reboot the server to be able to have an ssh
connection to it. The fact that it has behaved the same way on different
versions tells me it's probably a ram issue. Is there any other way of
running an anti-virus check on this little mail server without running
clamd?
I can find nothing in the log files:
Fri Jan 22 19:25:26 2010 -> +++ Started at Fri Jan 22 19:25:25 2010
Fri Jan 22 19:25:26 2010 -> clamd daemon 0.95.3 (OS: linux-gnu, ARCH:
x86_64, CPU: x86_64)
Fri Jan 22 19:25:26 2010 -> Log file size limit disabled.
Fri Jan 22 19:25:26 2010 -> Reading databases from /var/lib/clamav
Fri Jan 22 19:25:26 2010 -> Not loading PUA signatures.
I also find nothing unusual in syslog.
I really appreciate your help.
Regards
