With sendmail stopped, I start clamd(which creates /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock as before), then clamav-milter this time as "clamav-milter -options local:/var/run/clmilter.sock" Now I get error: ClamAv: Unable to bind to port local:/var/run/clmilter.sock: Permission Denied ClamAv: Unable to create listening socket on conn local:/var/run/clmilter.sock the clamav-milter program will try to run as clamav user under typical install. Odds are that ls -la /var/run /var/run/clmilter.sock will show you a permissions conundrum. My recommendation? Switch the sendmail/clamav-milter sock to point to /var/run/clamav/clamav-milter.sock I'm entering all these commands as root. If sendmail is already running it issues a warning that /var/run/clmilter.sock is missing. If I then try again to start clmilter again the above error repeats. So ???

I've uncommented "FixStaleSocket" in clamav.conf but it didn't solve my problem. George Nigel Horne wrote: ClamAv: Unable to bind to port local:/var/run/clamav/clamd.sock: Address already in use.

[Clamav-users] Can't get clamav-milter going
I had clamav antivirus working fine for a couple months. Now after a reboot I can't it started to save my neck. After starting the clamd deamon, which creates "/var/run/clamav/clamd.sock, and starting clamav-milter, clamav-milter exits with following error message: ClamAv: Unable to bind to port local:/var/run/clamav/clamd.sock: Address already in use. In use by possibly what? I haven't any idea what this message means or what I can do about it. I've tried increasing the debug level but this is about as much information as I can get. Also, I have tried going through the archive of this list and found exactly the same question but there was no answer. Please help !!
