[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# clamdscan -l scan.txt
/root/clamav-0.80/test
/root/clamav-0.80/test: Access denied. ERROR
I have the same issue, I can NOT run clamscan with out the -d option and
giving the directory of the data base.
clamscan -l scan.txt -r /tmp/clamav-0.80 -d /var/lib/clamav/
Shortly after installing the application I did the test and it worked
perfectly. For what ever reason it looks like it has some variable inserted
in front of the true path (like it thinks it is in a chroot jail). I would
have to test but I think it stopped after I edited /etc/clamd.conf and
/etc/freshclam.conf files and entered the following line:
DatabaseDirectory /var/lib/clamav
I know the application is working and so is freshclam:
#freshclam
