Hi all
Just ran into this prob on a coupla servers.
Clients reported Email clients giving errors that related to 'too many connections' & email sending & receiving failed.
Scouting around the 'net' I find most peeps are seeing database probs reported in the logs, so checking /var/log/clamd/current I see the 'malformed database' issue reported.
Jumped into the /var/clamav folder * deleted/moved: main.cvd, main.cld, daily.cvd, daily.cld, bytecode.cvd & then ran freshclam.
Once freshclam reported it completed successfully I ran signal-event email-update to be sure all mail components were fully functional. Checked the log files & they report that things are happy again.
There are a coupla bugs in bugzilla that relate to this issue, for both 7.x & 8.x, have a read for more info:
7.x
http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58748.x
http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5868This has only occurred when I upgraded to the latest clamav (0.96.1) from the smeupdates-testing repo.
