RE: [clamav-users] clamd dropping out with no aparent reason
Sorry guys, The problem that I tough was sorted out is instead still there. Also with the version 0.60. I noticed that there this afternoon after freshclam updated virusdb at about 16:45 GMT with no problem at least looking at freshclam logs: -- Checking for a new database - started at Fri Jun 27 16:45:01 2003 viruses.db is up to date. Database updated (containing in total 8736 signatures). Database updated from clamav.elektrapro.com. -- At the following selfcheck of clamd the program misbehaved and I got a coredump that maybe somebody want to debug (please send me a private msg to get it). The clamd log again shows only 2 lines: Fri Jun 27 16:52:12 2003 -> SelfCheck: Database modification detected. Forcing reload. Fri Jun 27 16:52:12 2003 -> Reading databases from /usr/local/share/clamav And after I have a core dump file (ls -l) -rw--- 1 root wheel 11346388 Jun 27 16:52 clamd.core - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The only modification I make to the ditributions are the patches contained in the OpenBSD unofficial port. I don't use the port system but just untar the file and apply the patch to the original distribution. The patches contained in 33-clamav-20030613.tgz worked for both 0.60 and clamav-20030613. Sorry about the lack of details on the version of clamav installed and by the way how safe is to install a snapshot version on a production site? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Attachment: pgp3.pgp pgp3.pgp Description: "Description: PGP signature"

Re: [clamav-users] clamd dropping out with no aparent reason
I'm experiencing the same trouble running a similar setup: OpenBSD3.3, Postfix, amavisd-new-20030314-p2 (running chrooted), spamassassin, clamd What I noticed is that the problem occurs after a db update via freshclam. Basically after a successful update clamd checks itself and the db for updates (by default every 3600 sec). Then it detect the change a write in the log: SelfCheck: Database modification detected. Forcing reload. Reading databases from /usr/local/share/clamav The problem is that the system doesn't give any additional sign of disorder but actually doesn't restart properly because the socket file is not properly deleted and restarted when the clamd restarts. If then you kill the daemon, delete the socket file and restarts the daemon then it restarts nicely and works again. I hope this info will help developers to fix the problem. Meanwhile I'm trying to work it out using the optional script that freshclam can run after a successful db update.

[clamav-users] clamd dropping out with no aparent reason
Running OpenBSD3.3, Postfix, amavisd-new-20030616, spamassassin, clamd. Everything seems to run great for awhile and until the maillog indicates "Can't connect to UNIX socket /var/amavisd/clamd:" and by then the dameon process is no longer running. Sometimes it runs for a couple days, sometimes a couple of hours. I have to shutdown amavisd, delete /var/amavisd/clamd, startup clamd again and then amavisd. Then it works for awhile, then I have to go through it again. Any suggestions on how to track this down would be appreciated.
