Hi,
as I am also beaten by #424772 I tried to find out what's going wrong:
It is the way su determines which shell to run.
su uses 1) shell specified with -s
2) if -p is given: $SHELL
3) shell from /etc/passwd
4) /bin/sh
what happens in the "initscript run by init" case is:
- $SHELL is not set
- /etc/passwd gives: clamav:x:109:114::/var/lib/clamav:/bin/false
and /bin/false is used.
in the "initscript run by root" case $SHELL is set by login or some PAM
mechanism and then used by su (because -p).
I modified /etc/init.d/clamav-[daemon|freshclam] a bit:
-daemon:
- su "$User" -p -c ". /lib/lsb/init-functions && start_daemon -p $THEPIDFILE
$DAEMON"
+ su "$User" -p -s /bin/sh -c ". /lib/lsb/init-functions && start_daemon -p
$THEPIDFILE $DAEMON"
-freshclam:
- su clamav -p -c ". /lib/lsb/init-functions && start_daemon $DAEMON -d
--quiet"
+ su clamav -p -s /bin/sh -c ". /lib/lsb/init-functions && start_daemon
$DAEMON -d --quiet"
and clamav starts again at system boot.
with kind regards
Björn
