I don't know what version of sendmail you are using, but I think someone
else suggested it was a problem with 8.12 that wasn't in 8.11

I suggest you try going back to using --external and clamd.

Just as an update incase anyone else is having issues, I've upgraded the
machines that were failing to FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE (via installing 5.4-rc4
and rebuilt the source tree from CVS (yesterday's source tree).)

The errors are still in place, and the newer machine that I brought up
which was originally working, is also having the problem now.

=  May  6 13:29:23 jor-l clamav-milter: ClamAv: accept() returned
invalid
=  socket (Result too large), try again

The other machine that was originally fine is also getting the above
message, in addition to a sig11.  So far the sig11 has not appeared on
the jor-l machine (but it was before the 5.4-S upgrade.)

=  May  6 13:44:07 zod kernel: pid 93239 (clamav-milter), uid 106:
exited on 
=  signal 11 

These are pretty heavily loaded machines.  They each handle about 2M
msgs/day, but at the same time they're pretty beefy with lots of
resources (which aren't appearing to be used very much.)

Would someone have any suggestions on tuning clamav for such a load?  I
was using it with clamd and doing clamav-milter --external, but am not
now.  Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

In order to survive (and not every customer calling) I had to set a 10s
timeout for the milter to talk to the socket.  This sadly means we're
missing viruses, but it allows the SMTP server to keep responding...

Thanks for anything that anyone can provide,

It could be, but the -STABLE we're running is from over a year after the

Nigel,

I didn't see a response other than your first on IRC, my client was
maybe messing up too or lag?  Apologizes, again...

Anyway - I'm currently using Sendmail 8.12.11.  The flags to
clamav-milter are:

--dont-scan-on-error --external --postmaster-only --local --outgoing
--max-children=5

As I said on #clamav, I only have access to FreeBSD5 so I can't
reproduce
the problem. What are your startup arguments to clamav-milter? The
accept()
call is from within the libmilter library, not clamav-milter, what
version
of sendmail do you have?

[Clamav-users] clamav dying & accept() errors in syslog

2005-05-04 Thread Phillip Salzman
Hello,

I just put clamav (and clamav-milter) into production on two fairly
large Sendmail servers.  Before doing this, I tested it on a box and
didn't have any problems.

It seems that I'm having a couple possibly unrelated issues.  First of
all, I have seen several clamav-milter processes eating up as much CPU
as possibly and not finishing.  Secondly, I've found these errors in
/var/log/messages:

--
May  4 13:39:03 lora clamav-milter: ClamAv: accept() returned invalid
socket (Result too large), try again
May  4 13:39:28 lora last message repeated 9 times
--

I'm currently using clamav 0.84e on FreeBSD 4.9-stable.  They are on
Dell hardware.

Does anyone know where I should look?  I haven't found anything about
this and have come up with very few hits in Google.

Thanks,

Phillip Salzman
