Hans, I installed amavis-new for the first time this morning and noticed this message in my logs. I have not been able to solve it by myself, so ask for some assistance. Clamd runs as user clamav:clamav. Directory /var/run/clamav is owned by clamav:clamav, permissions rwxrwx---; socket /var/run/clamav/clamd is owned by clamav:clamav, permissions srwxrwxrwx. User amavis:amavis also belong to group clamav. As Gary noticed, this is irrelevant, what matters is placing user clamav to the amavis group, as documented in the INSTALL document: - some virus scanners run as daemons or change UID when checking files. It is easiest to run such virus scanners under the same UID/GID (or at least within the same group) as amavisd, to avoid file permission problems when virus scanner reads files prepared for checking by amavisd daemon. Some virus scanners may require write permission to the $TEMPBASE directory to be able to create auxiliary files there. If a different UID is preferred for an AV scanner, a solution for ClamAV is to add user clamav to the amavis group (e.g.: vscan:*:110:clamav in a file /etc/group), and then add: AllowSupplementaryGroups yes to clamd.conf.

Hi,
Can someone help with following error?
Check the path to your clamd socket in clamd.conf and amavisd.conf. They
need to point to the correct location of the socket and they both need to
match.
Look for this section in your clamd.conf:
# Path to a local socket file the daemon will listen on.
LocalSocket /var/amavis/clamd.socket
Look for this section in your amavisd.conf:
['ClamAV-clamd',
\ask_daemon, [CONTSCAN {}\n, /var/amavis/clamd.socket],
