Topic: Clam AV error message

[cc_skavenger]

I just looked at the freshclam logs and noticed this in it:

--------------------------------------

I installed Clam from pagefault.org, about 3 months ago.  Anyone know if there are any updates, there are none listed on pagefault.org.

Thanks

If you also update with sme-antivirus then these new settings are fixed and there is also a new panel config for mirror country.

Looking good  

My log looks like this:

After that the DNS name of my country mirror stays  the same but the ip switches between the ones above.

I guess this is the result of Clamav's new updating system.

Ergin, did you make a custom template for the change in /etc/freshclam.conf? Otherwise you'd loose the changed setting at next boot

Jesper, I couldn't find any update on your site. Did you mean that you've updated the contrib with the DNSDatabaseInfo directive?

[ainigma32]

Ooops my bad    You're right. I guess I used an old download. I downloaded Jesper's script just now, ran it and it's working like a charm. Jesper: you the man  




P.S. I'm assuming Jesper is a guy's name

Hi Knuddi!

I originally installed clamav from pagefault.org and still have e-smith-antivirus RPM

e-smith-antivirus-6.0.4-02dc

Can I just upgrade it with your sme-antivirus RPM?

[Knuddi]

If you just run the script it will detect pagefault.org version and do a proper uninstall before install of sme-antivirus.

Rgds,
Jesper
