Package: clamav-daemon
Version: 0.90.1dfsg-3etch10

hi,
 
I'm using clamav-deamon with freshclam to scan incoming
emails on my mail-server.
 
After the last clamav-update in debian etch, clamav stops
working sometimes after freshclam updated the signatures.
In the log-file it reads like this:
 
/var/log/clamav/clamav.log -->
>(..) 21:56:32 (..)SelfCheck: Database modification detected. Forcing reload.
>(..) 21:56:32 (..)Reading databases from /var/lib/clamav
>(..) 21:58:42 (..)ERROR: reload db failed: Unable to lock database directory 
>(try 1)
>(..) 22:00:52 (..)ERROR: reload db failed: Unable to lock database directory 
>(try 2)
>(..) 22:03:02 (..)ERROR: reload db failed: Unable to lock database directory

>(..) 22:03:02 (..)Terminating because of a fatal error.Wed Mar 12 22:03:02 
>2008 -> Socket file removed.
>(..) 22:03:02 (..)Pid file removed.
>(..) 22:03:02 (..)--- Stopped at Wed Mar 12 22:03:02 2008

Both clamd.ctl and clamd.pid in /var/run/clamav will removed, and two
clamscan-processes (started by postfix) will use 99% of CPU.
 
A simple restart of clamd, freshclamd and postfix does not help, the only
one which helps is to restart the whole server.
~10mins after restart  the log is looking like:
 
/var/log/clamav/clamav.log -->

Here are the debian-packets I use:
clamav                            0.90.1dfsg-3etch10
clamav-freshclam                  0.90.1dfsg-3etch10
clamav-daemon                     0.90.1dfsg-3etch10
Kernel: 2.6.18-6-amd64
libc: libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13etch5
/var/lib/clamav is on an ext3-filesystem.
 
Has somebody an idea to solve it? Groups+Permissions
of the relevant files are looking OK. The clamav-mailinglist
told me that I'm using an old version of clamav, but I do 
not believe we like to say "debian is using an old version, 
thats why it's buggy" ;-)
 
Thanks,
Markus
