Ben Walker posted to the list on 2003-09-04 regarding this error when using
uvscan within qmail-scanner.
I am having precisely the same problem with my installation. (I have the
latest stable debian dist - 2.4.18-686 #1 Sun Apr 14 11:32:47 EST 2002 i686
Pentium II (Deschutes) GenuineIntel GNU/Linux ).
Also, I can get qmailscanner to leave the files behind and scan manually
with no error as an unprivileged user. I have tried everything I can think
of including chmod u+s on uvscan with it owned by root. I have also tried
the --mime and --mailbox switches. Perl version is 5.6.1. I have no problems
with the spamassassin part of the scan - just with uvscan. Any help would be
much appreciated.

I am having a bit of trouble with uvscan running from qmail-scanner.
In the debug log I get the error "file could not be opened." After looking
over NAI site I added the switches --mime and --mailbox. Still the same
error. I commented out the cleanup "rm -rf ..." line and ran uvscan as
root and non-privileged users (qmailq and qscand) from the command line
and it worked, no errors. So I had perlscanner block .pifs and that worked
(after uvscan said the file could not be opened.) I installed clamav and
rebuilt qmail-scanner-queue.pl. Clamav was first in the list to run. It
finds
the virus and uvscan doesn't load (which makes sense.) So I changed the
order that they run, uvscan runs first. Back to uvscan not being able
to open the file.
Has anyone seen this? or can anyone shed some light on this I would
appreciate
hearing from you.
Thanks,
Ben
