Hello,

I have yesterday upgraded to 0.82 on two servers (RedHat 7.3 kernel 2.4.24) yesterday morning and everything went fine. This morning I found that on both servers clamd is running but viruses are not detected. I run freshclam from cron every hour between 15 and 45 minutes randomly so both servers outputed the following into log files and stoped to work after daily update (701) was loaded between 20:15:00 UTC Feb 8 2005 and 20:45:00 UTC Feb 2005:

Tue Feb  8 23:42:37 2005 -> No stats for Database check - forcing reload
Tue Feb  8 23:42:38 2005 -> Reading databases from /bases
Tue Feb  8 23:42:39 2005 -> Database correctly reloaded (30353 viruses)

my maillog file reports contains a lot of messages like this:

Feb 8 23:26:10 ns clamav-milter[1141]: failed to send SCAN (null) command to clamd
Feb 8 23:26:45 ns clamav-milter[1148]: failed to send SCAN (null) command to clamd
Feb 8 23:26:54 ns clamav-milter[1150]: failed to send SCAN (null) command to clamd


clamd reload didn't help so I decided to restart clamav-milter and started to catch viruses. I run clamav-milter with the following arguments:

CLAMAV_FLAGS="-c /etc/clamd.conf -nlPH unix:/ctl/clamav-milter.ctl --external"

here is clamd.conf:

Any idea what happened and how can I avoid the same in future? Thanks in advance.
