Freshclam doesn't start because databases are now updated by cron job
'/etc/cron.d/clamav-update' in 'freshclam.service' file. If cron job
file exists freshclam daemon is not necessary.
Pick one of two options:
1)
vi /usr/lib/systemd/system/clamav-freshclam.service
replace
ConditionPathExists=!/etc/cron.d/clamav-update
with
#ConditionPathExists=!/etc/cron.d/clamav-update
vi /etc/cron.d/clamav-update
replace
0 */3 * * * root /usr/share/clamav/freshclam-sleep > /dev/null
with
#0 */3 * * * root /usr/share/clamav/freshclam-sleep > /dev/null
or
2)
vi /usr/bin/toaststat
replace
for sv in clamd@scan clamav-freshclam spamassassin ... ... ...
with
for sv in clamd@scan spamassassin ... ... ...

I see where Chandran had this same issue a few weeks ago. What did you
do to resolve it?
Thanks, Gary

Running a toaster on CentOS 7, with everything updated every couple
of months. Just did an update on my server. The update took me from
clamav-update-0.103.2-1.el7.x86_64 > clamav-update-0.103.2-2.el7.x86_64
All the other clamav packages are also updated from/to the same
version, clamav, clamav-lib, clamav-filesystem.
After a reboot, toastat gives me
systemd service: clamav-freshclam: [ FAILED ]
Then I took a look at.
systemctl status clamav-freshclam
â clamav-freshclam.service - ClamAV virus database updater

Docs: man:freshclam(1)
man:freshclam.conf(5)

The /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log just has this one line.
Sun Jul 11 12:29:07 2021 -> Update process terminated
Any suggestions as to how to resolve this?
Thanks, Gary
