  That's not the problem. /var/lib/clamav/clamd.socket, or 
 wherever you
  have put it, is the likely issue.

 That was an example.  To find the path to the socket you are using, try

 Thanks. This gave

 LocalSocket /usr/sbin

Ouch, pointing LocalSocket to /usr/sbin is not a good idea.

I have removed all of clamav/clamd and reinstalled the rpms and clamd was
put in /usr/bin, but /etc/clamd.conf shows LocalSocket /tmp/clamd Is this
correct?

Yes.  The socket is not the program, it is a connector, _created by_ the
program.   /tmp or /var/run are common places for it.

Yes, you seem to be confusing the binary program /usr/bin/clamd with the 
socket file which is created by clamd when it starts up.  With the 
clamd.conf setting you had originally:


 LocalSocket /usr/sbin

You are attempting to overwrite the clamd executable with the socket.  I 
cant even imagine what results this would produce.

At the very least it has triggered the sequence of events that will cause 
the sun to expand to the point the earth is totally torched. Sure, it won't 
happen in our lifetime, but what about the children?

Seems as if you have notify-clamd enabled and maybe you have set wrong 
permissions/rights on the socket-file.

clamd.conf is shown 644 root:root, should it be 644 clamav:clamav?
