Hi Kris thanks for trying to help, Here you go:

The question about the error still remains though. The chown and mkdir look a bit suspect to me; I'm not seeing anything like that in the Debian packages (which should be mostly the same in Ubuntu). What I *do* see in one of the stock files (/lib/systemd/system/clamav-daemon.socket) is this stanza: [Socket] ListenStream=/run/clamav/clamd.ctl #ListenStream=127.0.0.1:1024 SocketUser=clamav SocketGroup=clamav RemoveOnStop=True which if I understand correctly, implies that clamd on this system is using systemd's socket creation/handling voodoo rather than doing so itself. Can you post: - Output from "dpkg -L clamav-daemon |grep system" - Contents of any .service or .socket files from the above list - Contents of any files in /etc/systemd/system/clamav-daemon.service.d > Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/clamav-daemon.service; enabled; > vendor preset: enabled) > > Drop-In: /etc/systemd/system/clamav-daemon.service.d > > └─extend.conf This seems to indicate that you're not using the stock systemd service definitions from Ubuntu/Debian upstream. -kgd _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list clamav-users@lists.clamav.net http://lists.clamav.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list clamav-users@lists.clamav.net http://lists.clamav.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
