Dear All,

I have downloaded the 0.80 version yesterday and compiled and run it on both a Linux machine and a Solaris 9 machine. The following problem is found on both platforms:-

I have a virus file and I tried scanning it with clamscan, and it did not report that it is a virus/worm. So, I tried adding a "--database" tag, and this time, clamscan correctly identifies the virus. Then, I think the "DatabaseDirectory" tag might not have been picked up correctly. So, I edit "/usr/local/etc/clamd.conf". There, when I uncomment that line which points to "/var/lib/clamav" and do a "clamscan" again, it gives an error. On Solaris 9:

LibClamAV Error: cl_loaddbdir(): Can't open directory
ERROR: Unable to open file or directory

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 0
Scanned directories: 0
Scanned files: 0
Infected files: 0
Data scanned: 0.00 MB
I/O buffer size: 131072 bytes
Time: 0.004 sec (0 m 0 s)


On Linux:

LibClamAV Error: cl_loaddbdir(): Can't open directory �/lib/clamav
ERROR: Unable to open file or directory

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 0
Scanned directories: 0
Scanned files: 0
Infected files: 0
Data scanned: 0.00 MB
I/O buffer size: 131072 bytes
Time: 0.017 sec (0 m 0 s)

Anyone knows how to fix it? Also, "clamscan -V" gives something like the following:

ClamAV 0.80/375/Thu Jan  1 08:00:00 1970

If that gives the time when the software was built, that is wrong. The symptom occurs on both Solaris 9 and Linux.

Best,

Daniel.
