Hello List,
First time posting here, so forgive me if I do things wrong.
I'm experiencing the following problem on one of my servers with
clamav-0.85.1. Same compilation options on a bunch of other servers
are working fine, just this one is making trouble.
During boot-up, clamav spawns a process 'ls', which takes up 99% CPU
and gradually eats up ram until the box freezes. The "funny" part is,
when I disable clamav from startup during boot, and start it manually
afterwards, all is going fine. I can see the CPU load through the
Servermonitoring tool we're using, which manages to get a few lines of
"top" before the server freezes.
The System Specs:
#cat /etc/SuSE-release
SuSE Linux 9.0 (i586)
VERSION = 9.0
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+
1GB of Ram
Unfortunately, the logs (/var/log/messages, /var/log/boot.msg) don't
say much about it.
The start-script i'm using for clamav is rather simple:
<snip>
case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "starting clamavd"
su -c - clamav "/usr/local/clamav/sbin/clamd"
rc_status -v
sleep 2
echo -n "starting clamav-milter"
su -c - clamav "/usr/local/clamav/sbin/clamav-milter -dq
local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock"
rc_status -v
;;
</snip>
and that's where it hangs.
Anyone have had the same/similar problems and would happen to be able
to shed some light on this issue?
Can I provide more information, so this problem can be examined further?
Thanks in Advance
Emanuel
