I recently updated my clam, simscan, ripmime, etc to the latest as of a
2 weeks ago:
mail:/var/src # ls
clamav-0.90.2 libdomainkeys-0.68 simscan-1.3.1.shupp2
vpopmail-5.4.18
courier-authlib-0.59.1 netqmail-1.05 tar
courier-imap-4.1.2 ripmime-1.4.0.6 toaster-scripts-0.9.0
clamd kept going into a defunct state, and while troubleshooting this
problem I noticed scrolling messages in the /var/log/clamd/current file
that indicated why it was going defunct. Essentially it wanted
booleans. Here are the lines from the file it was complaining about:
LogFile stderr
LogClean
LogVerbose
Foreground
I changed them to:
# LogFile stderr
LogClean yes
LogVerbose yes
Foreground yes
That took care of the defunct problem, but either way clamd is not
working. I am getting pummeled with spam since trying to update. Can
anyone point me in the right direction to fixing this correctly?
More information available upon request.
Thanks,
John
