we run freshclam as a cron job

and you are right, there was a CVD error too...

so we have two .broken files so to speak

main.cld.broken

and

main.cvd.broken

so there was simple conflict of some sort. i tried to copy and paste the
errors yet forgot to save it

ill check if i can find in the logs

and of course, after two manual freshclam runs, we were good to go

then manual

service clamd start

and up

:-)

thanks again!
