Package: clamav-freshclam Version: 0.88.3-libunrar3-1 Severity: important When freshclam is configured to act as a daemon the init script fails to start it. Below is the output:
Starting ClamAV virus database updater: freshclam/sbin/start-stop-daemon: stat /var/run/clamav/freshclam.pid: No such file or directory (No such file or directory) failed! Running the init script in debug mode (with the -x switch) one can see what's happening (the output below is only an excerpt): Starting ClamAV virus database updater: freshclam+ '[' -f /etc/cron.d/clamav-freshclam ']' + start_daemon /usr/bin/freshclam -p /var/run/clamav/freshclam.pid -d --quiet + local force nice pidfile exec i + force=0 + nice=0 + pidfile=/dev/null + getopts fn:p: opt + shift 2 + '[' /var/run/clamav/freshclam.pid = -- ']' + exec=/var/run/clamav/freshclam.pid + shift + '[' 0 = 1 ']' + '[' /dev/null ']' + /sbin/start-stop-daemon --start --nicelevel 0 --quiet --exec /var/run/clamav/freshclam.pid --oknodo --pidfile /dev/null -- -d --quiet /sbin/start-stop-daemon: stat /var/run/clamav/freshclam.pid: No such file or directory (No such file or directory) It seems that the start_daemon() function from /lib/lsb/init-functions wants to execute the pid file (note the exec=/var/run/clamav/freshclam.pid assignment).
