I suspect you have more than one clamav installed and therefore you might have some strange combination of lib and path.
I'd check the following:
which clamscan # to see where it's executed from
ldd `which clamscan` # to see what libs are accessed
strings `which clamscan` | grep conf # to see any reference to clamd.conf
and
clamscan --debug # to see some other maybe interesting clue.


Best regards.

Anyone in here using clam AV in production?

I get the error:

LibClamAV Error: cl_loaddb(): Can't open file �W�!�>�!2�L/daily.cvd

when I try to run clamscan.  Path is corrupted somehow? - don't know where.

I do know that I have 3 copies of daily.cvd:

/var/lib/clamav/daily.cvd
/usr/local/share/clamav/daily.cvd
/clamav/clamav-0.80/database/daily.cvd


Where do you set any configuration for the clamscan process? I've gone through clamd.conf and freshclam.conf and everything seems OK so there's something I've obviously missed.

What I want to check out is the resource consumption of clamscan vs
clamdscan.

I've tried starting clamd with a nice value of 17 to cut down CPU use but
I'm not running a busy enough system to bring that into play, I think.
Clamdscan (which uses clamd) still wants 50% of the CPU.
