Oh, for frak's sake, I'm an idiot. :) I had written a maildir test prog
that first waits for 3 minutes (to lose any open pop3 connection). So,
no wonder it hang, LOL.

With that out of the way, my cool FreeBSD 4.11 has survived yet another
version of clamav. :) It gets a little harder every time, but still.

I did this, too (actually, figured it out on my own, lol, before I realized
it
might be on the list as well). So, everything compiles properly now.

My clamd, however, is still not working; it kinda hangs when you query the
socket. Very reminiscent of a fork-problem on OpenBSD on clamav of a few
releases back. There was a patch, or trick for it, to get around that. Does
it
exist for 0.94.1 too?

No likely. Are you using a utility such as 'portmanager' or
'portupgrade' to upgrade ClamAV? Could you be more specific and list
the libraries that are affected? Better yet, run 'script' when you do an
update and then we can examine it to see what the problem is.

In any case, FreeBSD-5.5 is quite old and I believe no longer
supported, although I might be wrong about that.

Not possible, except for those related to Clamav. Not system libraries.
I've only used FreeBSD since 1999 and I make a livng out of building servers
from it.
My offer stands though. It doesn't mean anything. I just want to help.
The changes to the Makefile that were posted work very well.

I'm working about 15 years with FreeBSD. The ports tree is one of the
weak points of the operating system. After updating the ports tree and
then compiling clamav, some other libraries were "updated" too. I have
seen this with my eyes!

FreeBSD ports update does NOT affect the system at all! You are damn wrong
on this, to an extent I think you are not that familiar with FreeBSD.
I am offering you one thing: Give me access to your system and I will fix
whatever it is that the update of the ports tree breaks.

I have done this, too. After that many applications didn't run anymore

Hi Jürgen

Please use cvsup or csup to upgrade your ports tree. I use csup via cron and
I have never had a major problem, except where the OS version has been an
issue when compiling a port, like I had with this version of Clamav.
Give portsnap a break for now if it doesn't help you.

Thanks for the answer.

I have the Makefile edited. Now I get this:

# make
===>  Vulnerability check disabled, database not found
===>  Found saved configuration for clamav-0.94.1
===>  Extracting for clamav-0.94.1
=> MD5 Checksum OK for clamav-0.94.1.tar.gz.
=> SHA256 Checksum OK for clamav-0.94.1.tar.gz.
===>  Patching for clamav-0.94.1
===>  Applying FreeBSD patches for clamav-0.94.1
File to patch: 

And now?

As I wrote in the original posting the ports tree is unupgradable,
because portsnap destroyed the most.

Bah.  Upgrade your ports and edit the port Makefile.  Delete
--enable-gethostbyname_r under CONFIGURE_ARGS= and change
PTHREAD_LIBS= -lthr to PTHREAD_LIBS= -pthread.  Works with my 5.5.

I have tested your options for configure. I doesn't change anything.

Thanks for your help.

I will test your configure options.

FreeBSD 5.5 is the last release which runs on my server. It does not
look like that this will change the next time. No other operating system
has trouble with my hardware, only FreeBSD 6.x and 7.x.


Thanks again and I will test this.

Did you report those so that they can be looked into?

I encountered a problem with 0.94.1 on FreeBSD-5.5, but in my case, I
compiled it from the ports. Yes, the ports has it.
My problem is that clamd kept on restarting indefinately. This was not
happening with 0.93.3. So after pulling off so much of my hair , and posting
to the list and getting no responses, I decided to manually compile and see.
I used the following configure options:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-group=clamav \
--disable-clamuko --with-user=mailnull \
--disable-gethostbyname_r \
--disable-zlib-vcheck \
--disable-clamav \
--enable-bigstack \
--enable-readdir_r \
--disable-dependency-tracking \
--disable-bzip2

Strangely, after I installed, it was able to run without the endless
restarting. I don't know what is in the ports that did this, but I think
it's not the ports. Rather it's something in 0.94.1. Not sure though,

I use Exim, as opposed to Postfix, so if you decide to try my way, be very
careful with the "--with-user=mailnull".

Not sure if that will help, but I am so far happy.

As regards upgrading from FreeBSD-5.5 as some may ask, I already have a
7.1-PRERELEASE which will replace this server. I am gonna migrate all the
services.

Yes. The reason is, that FBSD 6 or 7 does not run anymore on my hardware
(SCSI problems).

Is there a good reason you can't upgrade to at least FreeBSD 6, or
even better FreeBSD 7?

[Clamav-users] Clamav 0.94.1 not working under FreeBSD 5.5

2008-11-12 Thread Juergen Dankoweit
Hello to the list,

on my FreeBSD system I have strange problems with clamav:
During detection a virus clamav blocks the whole mail traffic for ever.
Only a restart of postfix, amavis and clamav solves this until the next
virus.

With clamav 0.93.3 there are no problems but it is too outdated.

Because the ports tree is unupgradable I must use the original source
from the web site. I compile clamav with the following options:
./configure --disable-clamuko --disable-ipv6

Please help.

Thanks for your answers.

Best regards

J.D.

Operating system: FreeBSD 5.5-STABLE #9
problematic clamav: 0.94.1
last successful version of clamav: 0.93.3
