Hi,
it is telling you that you have a permission problem. In the /etc/freshclam.conf file there is a parameter: DatabaseOwner amavis Default is user clamav. Depending on who is calling freshclam, you need to have the same owner set in this conf file. Also make sure that the logfile /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log is writeable by that user. And in your case /var/lib/clamav as well. Hope this helps, .peter On Fri, 29 Jun 2007, Jim Knuth wrote: > Hallo und Guten Morgen AMaViS-user, > > I use amavisd-new-2.5.2 (20070627) and clamav 0.90.3 and get this > in my logfile: > > tail -f /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log > ClamAV update process started at Thu Jun 28 23:42:51 2007 > main.inc is up to date (version: 43, sigs: 104500, f-level: 14, builder: sven) > ERROR: getfile: Can't create new file > ./clamav-42df18babdbd4f4571b7ecb22fb3309c in /var/lib/clamav/daily.inc > Hint: The database directory must be writable for UID 108 or GID 108 > ERROR: getpatch: Can't download daily-3518.cdiff from db.local.clamav.net > WARNING: Incremental update failed, trying to download daily.cvd > ERROR: getfile: Can't create new file > ./clamav-2b1f515d40dc735a28b16b9b88b82e78 in /var/lib/clamav > Hint: The database directory must be writable for UID 108 or GID 108 > ERROR: Can't download daily.cvd from db.local.clamav.net > > UID 108 is clamav > > id amavis > uid=105(amavis) gid=109(amavis) Gruppen=109(amavis),108(clamav) > > What am I missing?
