Title: freshclam: update failed -dansguardian??
Post by: ber on March 09, 2011, 09:43:46 PM
Hi got the following errors regarding freshclam updates...unsure why? suspecting dansguardian, Ive added these exceptions to the file extension lists in case its blocking the downloads (.cdiff and .cdv)- still no luck.
My virus engine version is: ClamAV and db versions    0.96.4/12809/Tue Mar 8 12:06:01 201

SME version 7.5.2- server mode

heres a copy of the update error email:

Ive tried to run yum update- nothing was installed.

This line interest me: 2011-03-10 09:17:05.511747500 WARNING: Local version: 0.96.4 Recommended version: 0.97

maybe the new version file type is being blocked by dansguardian?? do i need to add another type of file extension exception to dansguardian?

Thanks in advance for any input.

Ber, this is a very common issue and it has nothing to do with Dansguardian

a workaround is to delete /var/clamav/mirrors.dat and wait

Chris, thanks for the advise- deleted the file and no more freshclam update issues...just for personal knowledge is the issue related to the freshclam mirror site?

Thanks for the work Chris
