This may be better posted to a clamav forum - but I want to try here (vent
a bit!) first.
In the past (Fedoras 6ish - 13) I have installed clamd from source because
I was frustrated with the slow speed of updates when a new version of clam
became available. However, this brough with it a raft of SELinux problems
and one of the comments on the SELinux list was "why don't you use the yum
repo version?"
Well, in upgrading to F15 I though I would give it a try...
Everything is in different places and called different things to what I
was used to but I am really stumped with this one:
When I try to start clamd with the "service clamd start" command systemd
fails and gives the very unhelpful detail "Process: 17780
ExecStart=/etc/rc.d/init.d/clamd start (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)"
What the hell does status=1 mean?
So I try to start it from the command line:
ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file /etc/clamd.conf
Now here's the thing... /etc/clamd.conf is where the config file used to
be in F13 when I compiled from source, but this is a bare-metal install of
F15 with clam* installed through yum. The config file is now in
/etc/clam.d/clamd.conf
The /etc/init.d/clamd script simply has the following in it:
# cat /etc/init.d/clamd
======8<=============================================
#!/bin/bash
#
# chkconfig: - 75 35
# description: The clamd server running for <SERVICE>
CLAMD_SERVICE=clamd
. /usr/share/clamav/clamd-wrapper
======8<=============================================
and /usr/share/clamav/clamd-wrapper (which is symlinked to
/etc/init.d/clamd-wrapper) has this line in it:
CLAMD_CONFIGFILE=/etc/clamd.d/${CLAMD_SERVICE}.conf
Finally /etc/sysconfig/clamd has this in it:
# cat /etc/sysconfig/clamd
======8<=============================================
CLAMD_CONFIGFILE=/etc/clamd.d/clamd.conf
CLAMD_SOCKET=/var/run/clamd/clamd.sock
#CLAMD_OPTIONS=
======8<=============================================
Nowhere can I find any reference to /etc/clamd.conf - everywhere it seems
to be referenced as /etc/clamd.d/clamd.conf
So why does it fail with the message
ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file /etc/clamd.conf
???
