Hi Holger,

I'm cc'ing Mark who is the developer of ClamXav as I am not a ClamXav expert.

This is perhaps not a fink question ...

I use ClamXav as a frontend for the clamav virus scanner installed via fink. To problems occur:

1. When ClamXavSentry starts on login, it tells me that it can't find the scan service. It asked me to start clamXav to search for it. I do not excatly know what it means, but it sounds like that ClamXavSentry doesn't know that /sw/bin/clamscan does the job.

AFAIK ClamXavSentry uses the daemon /sw/sbin/clamd which is installed by the clamav-daemon package. Do you have that package installed, too?

2. When the virus definition is updated, ClamXav says

"Problem with log file - check permisions on /sw/var/db/clamav/ freschclam.log"

I did.

-rw-r----- 1 clamav admin 3669 18 Aug 15:23 /sw/var/db/ clamav/freshclam.log

Are those permissions set correctly?

No idea. Mark, do you know what the correct permission is?


running freshclam from the terminal says

[racoon:~] kuddel% freshclam
ClamAV update process started at Tue Aug 23 12:01:31 2005
main.cvd is up to date (version: 33, sigs: 36102, f-level: 5, builder: tkojm) daily.cvd is up to date (version: 1035, sigs: 3288, f-level: 5, builder: arnaud)
[racoon:~] kuddel% clamscan

That seems correct?

Thanks
