Topic: Clamav: unofficial

[ElFroggio]

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is the right forum or the contribs.

I just had a problem with the unofficial clamav extra signatures:

I installed, including

Code: [Select]

config setprop clamd MemLimit 1500000000

post-upgrade, reboot... Works properly, catches some more, great.

Saturday morning, I apply my 2 outstanding updates:

• cups
• tzdata

post-upgrade, reboot... Doesn't look like a problem, but by noon: zero email received. I investigated. All emails were being rejected by clamav. It turns out that the problem was:

Code: [Select]

config setprop clamd MemLimit 1500000000

It was not 'sticky' past the reboot.

How to make it sticky?

BTW, yum remove smeserver-clamav-unofficial-sigs doesn't work, I had to delete the whole unofficial manually.

Thanks

Syv

In all situations the master reconfiguration command & a reboot should apply db settings & expand all templates.

After applying db changes you should check the settings with

Code: [Select]

config show clamd
This will check your setting changes for spelling & syntax accuracy etc.

Doing

Code: [Select]

config setprop clamd MemLimit 1500000000
signal-event post-upgrade
signal-event reboot

& then checking the setting with

Code: [Select]

config show clamd
should make any changes permanent after a reboot

If not, then as advised, please post a bug report.

All emails were being rejected by clamav

The reason for that may not be the MemLimit setting but your "playing around" with the install & uninstall of contribs.

another thing OP should know is that coming here saying "it doesn't work" without log and/or error message is quite useless..
