Hi everybody

I am running a linux box with fedora 8. I installed clamav using the rpm packages. I already did this on a fedora 7 machine and everything worked fine. I am using the webmin interface for clamav administration.

When i try to update the database i always get the error message:

ERROR: Problem with internal logger (UpdateLogFile = /var/log/freshclam.log).
ERROR: Can't open /var/log/freshclam.log in append mode (check permissions!).

I played around with permissions on that file even rw to everyone, but no effect.

I can't also start clamav.

Getting the following error message everytime:

Jan 31 09:01:04 S000253 clamd[2822]: clamd daemon 0.92 (OS: linux-gnu, ARCH: i386, CPU: i386) Jan 31 09:01:04 S000253 clamd[2822]: Running as user amavis (UID 497, GID 495)
Jan 31 09:01:04 S000253 clamd[2822]: Log file size limited to 1048576 bytes.
Jan 31 09:01:04 S000253 clamd[2822]: Reading databases from /var/lib/clamav
Jan 31 09:01:04 S000253 clamd[2822]: Not loading PUA signatures.
Jan 31 09:01:04 S000253 clamd[2822]: Not supported data format


I would appreciate any help

Regards,
Carsten
