Hello all,

My installation of clamav issued a segmentation fault
in the clamd daemon this morning. The strange thing is,
it happened right after the freshclam's database update.
No virus checks at this time, that's why I suppose it
was the database reloading which caused the failure.

Wed Jul 14 03:20:38 2004 -> SelfCheck: Database status OK.
Wed Jul 14 04:23:00 2004 -> SelfCheck: Database status OK.
Wed Jul 14 05:23:46 2004 -> SelfCheck: Database status OK.
Wed Jul 14 06:01:19 2004 -> Reading databases from /usr/local/share/clamav
Wed Jul 14 06:01:20 2004 -> Segmentation fault :-( Bye..

Strange is that when I started again clamd with the same database there was no problems:

Wed Jul 14 09:46:41 2004 -> OLE2 support disabled.
Wed Jul 14 09:46:41 2004 -> Self checking every 3600 seconds.


So the question is, did someone else experienced such
a failure upon the database update at 06:00 this
morning (05:00 GMT)? I did the clamav compilation
without the "--debug" flag so this is the only
information I have. No errors in messages and syslog
from /var/log as well. The version of ClamAV which I
use is 0.70.

Best regards,
Boryan

P.S: an here follows the freshclam update log from this
