Please tell us exactly how you installed the package. Have you installed any previous version of ClamAV? In particular, have you previously installed any version 0.104 release candidate? Are you aware that a release candidate is not ready for production use - especially a 0.104 release candidate - and that there may be things in the package which do not behave as might be expected?
to generate the conf files from the default configuration.
Although I have never installed ClamAV on a Mac, I believe that the installation should normally create configuration files for you, and that you should not need to run 'clamconf' to create them. I have only ever run clamconf to show configuration settings. The online documentation may be a little misleading in this respect, it says run these commands "if needed" - it's probably not needed. (Incidentally it also doesn't mention clamav-milter.conf in section "Clamconf".)
I get no output errors and it looks like all is well, however when I run clamconf I get the following message: ... vaughna.hart@NaCl4 ~ % clamconf Checking configuration files in /usr/local/clamav/etc clamd.conf not found freshclam.conf not found clamav-milter.conf not found ... WARNING: freshclam.conf and clamd.conf point to different database directories ... I am concerned about the database location message.
You are right to be concerned. In addition to answering the questions above, please post the output of clamconf -n You can redirect the output of 'clamconf -n' to a file (use the command clamconf -n > file and post the content of the file) if you are unable to copy-and-paste the entire output from stdout to your mailer. -- 73, Ged. _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
