Andreas, In /etc/systemd/system/clamav-daemon.service.d I have extend.conf.dpkg.old instead of extend.conf. That is where I got the two lines ExecStartPre=-/bin/mkdir /run/clamav ExecStartPre=/bin/chown clamav /run/clamav from. Tjat would explain why i don't have the Drop-in line. The packages I have are ii clamav 0.100.1+dfsg-1ubuntu0.18.04.2 amd64 anti-virus utility for Unix - command-line interface ii clamav-base 0.100.1+dfsg-1ubuntu0.18.04.2 all anti-virus utility for Unix - base package ii clamav-daemon 0.100.1+dfsg-1ubuntu0.18.04.2 amd64 anti-virus utility for Unix - scanner daemon ii clamav-freshclam 0.100.1+dfsg-1ubuntu0.18.04.2 amd64 anti-virus utility for Unix - virus database update utility ii libclamav7:amd64 0.100.1+dfsg-1ubuntu0.18.04.2 amd64 anti-virus utility for Unix - library Which appear to be the same as yours. Looking in /var/log/apt/term file I see the line id:'clamav': no such user, but no other errors.
I would be glad to uninstall and re-install to see if /etc/systemd/system/clamav-daemon.service/extend.conf.dpkd.old has the right file name if you like. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1784193 Title: clamav-daemon fails to start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/clamav/+bug/1784193/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
