I had the same problem once. I think this error message is because the log file is empty.

Not the nicest solution, but it worked for me:
Mail the eicar antivirus testfile on http://www.eicar.org/ to yourself and I think this will solve your problem.

m2 answer  8-)

I am sure Lourens is right !
"No such file or directory" is no good input for grep
... or mrtg :-D

and the reason to write this is that I HEAVILY RECOMMEND testing any antivirus setup with "eicar".
Or does anybody really want to test it with a "live" virus ???

Actually I recommend to test with all 4 versions:
eicar.com (http://www.eicar.org/download/eicar.com)
eicar.com.txt (http://www.eicar.org/download/eicar.com.txt)
eicar_com.zip (http://www.eicar.org/download/eicar_com.zip)
eicarcom2.zip (http://www.eicar.org/download/eicarcom2.zip)
