is clamd running as a user that has permission for the /var/run?
if not, rather than messing /var/run up, try pointing at a 'dedicated' /tmp/clamd instead, with permissions for that user/group ...

I've seen this error mentioned a couple of places (obviously not a solution mentioned), and I've tried setting the following in clamav.conf: # Remove stale socket after unclean shutdown. FixStaleSocket Also checked the permissions, made sure the pid is set, etc. Nothing seems to work short of manually deleting the socket file. Any ideas? Best Regards, Darton
