Hi,

I would say check the log file for the configuration file being used.
Then check that whatever is producing the emails (from cron I assume)
is using the same config file. You may want to look at the
COPY_LOG_ON_ERROR option to see if you can capture what is going on.
To be honest it sounds like you may have 2 instances of rkhunter
running - one from cron which gives errors, one from the command-line
which does not.

[Rkhunter-users] RKHunter keeps sending warnings email but no warnings generated

[lanceh1412-business]

Hi,
I've got RKHunter running on three independent servers. Just recently, over the 
last week or so, I've started receiving email warnings that my servers may be 
infected. However, when i look in the logs there are no warnings and when I run 
rkhunter manually from the command line everything seems OK. Any one had a 
similar problem or know what may have caused this?
