Currently my email is not being scanned for viruses. (I have received a few viruses this morning.)Check your maillog. Amavis should have logged which primary scanners failed, together with the reason they failed.
When I ps, I see clamd, postfix, and amavis (master, and 2 x child) running. But, when I look in my messages file, I see this:
Dec 12 12:28:41 sm amavis[18955]: (18955-03) WARN: all primary virus scanners failed, considering backups
What am I missing, or what log file have I missed? (messages, clamd.log, freshclam.log.)
Thanks eric
With clamav this has two frequent causes:
1) The daemon is not running
or
2) The socket type and path differ from clamd.conf and amavisd.conf
