[clamav-users] freshclam: Verification: Can't verify database integrity

2022-12-25 Thread Jim Popovitch via clamav-users
What the heck could be causing freshclam verification problems for the
past 2 days?  I'm getting rate-limited over and over because freshclam
fails to verify daily.cvd (and then retries over and over).  Is there a
known problem with daily.cvd downloads being corrupt?  Google says to
"wget http://database.clamav.net/daily.cvd"; but that no longer works. 
What should I be doing differently?

The problem seems to be caused by `libtfm1` library, more percisely v0.13, or 
anything before 0.13.1-1.
Upgrading that fixes the issue.


As a sidenote: the mirror network happily block freshclam for a day due to rate 
limiting,
no matter what's in the freshclam config. It is rather hard to resolve since it 
is 
not possible to download the database files manually anymore (I had to realise 
that
the hard way.)

[clamav-users] freshclam Verification: Can't verify database integrity

2012-01-23 Thread Greg Cirino
Hello

Since upgrading from 0.97 to 0.97.3 it's been less then satisfying on a
fedora c3 server, I have a 7.3 server without issues

Every time (it seems) i run freshclam on the FC3 machine it wants to
redownload the main.cvd database over and over, not sure why as that
database doesn't appear to change, but it keeps giving me messages such as
Malformed database and Can't verify database integrity. Happens after it
was successful once before.

Note: this sporadically happens with daily.cvd and occasionally bytecode.cvd

Every once in a while the download works as expected, but then it starts
over again with the same issues.

I've had to turn off freshclam and just wget databases to get clamd to
function at all without barking. This is also not 100%

After freshclam update
clamd log:

you can try to delete all files in lib folder and start freshclam again.
by the way: you should maximum once per day refresh your signature files 
otherwise the cdn will block you for 24 hours.
Do you habe seen this page?

database integrity

What the heck could be causing freshclam verification problems for the
past 2 days?  I'm getting rate-limited over and over because freshclam
fails to verify daily.cvd (and then retries over and over).  Is there a
known problem with daily.cvd downloads being corrupt?  Google says to
"wget http://database.clamav.net/daily.cvd"; but that no longer works.
What should I be doing differently?

If freshclam is trying more than once per day than that is a freshclam
bug, no?

Yes, and a few others, they are of no help with the specific problem in
the subject. 

I suspect that this particular CDN endpoint is serving a corrupt file. 
(why isn't there a freshclam logged entry indicating which CDN mirror is
giving the error, after all the CDN can log the cooldown specifics)

does the freshclam process run with permissions required to update the

I can't explain the 2 identical logged lines, freshclam has been logging
dups that for a while now:

do you have single dedicated IP address for this server?

Yes, both IPv4 and IPv6.


> DatabaseOwner clamav
> DatabaseDirectory /var/lib/clamav

does the freshclam process run with permissions required to update the 
/var/lib/clamav directory? 
is it all owned by clamav user?

Yes, freshclam previously created this one file:

$ ll /var/lib/clamav/
total 4
-rw-r--r-- 1 clamav clamav 69 Dec 25 20:29 freshclam.dat


Very odd situation indeed.

It just occurred to me, with this latest round of errors, that there are
not 2 processes running.  The PID is 1807 for all logged errors.  This
means that freshclam is making 2 connections.   Any thoughts on
debugging these problems with freshclam?  All my googling suggest that
it's a mirror problem, is there a place to report mirror problems?

Hi all!

I'm seeing the same issue with ClamAV 0.103.7 on Debian Testing (Bookworm).
The freshclam.conf is as provided by the Debian package.

Any news on this issue?

good to know.


As a sidenote: the mirror network happily block freshclam for a day due to rate 
limiting,
no matter what's in the freshclam config. It is rather hard to resolve since it 
is
not possible to download the database files manually anymore (I had to realise 
that
the hard way.)


don't you run multiple clients behind the same IP address?
If so, set up private mirror. The clamav network was abused by multiple 
clients downloading whole databases too often, so quite drastic measures 
were set up.



I'm not subscribed but maybe mods will let this through:


sending private copy.

Nope. (Not one the machine in question anyway.) But frashclam tried to
access the default list of mirrors, which is 5-6 calls per 10 minutes
or about.

Indeed, on the _other_ systems I'll do that before upgrading, already
checked that it works well.

I guessed but there could be a captcha-protected manual download to
ease the pain.
I have cvdupdate'd it, but took some time to find the tool.

Thanks,

Might be bad RAM, run a memtest to make sure thats not the case.

Thats quite old, do you still have problems if you upgrade to latest version?

This makes little sense to me


I would suggest that this is incipient hardware failure, could be 
memory, hard drive or even nic, if the box is more than 2 or 3 years old 
I would replace it with a new one ASAP.

Thank you for your response, but I'm not 100% sure it's hardware

It may well be, but it isn't responding that way server wide, just with clam
which raises doubts about the hardware approach in my mind.

Thanks tho

Greg
