Hello All, When i do a reboot (about once per month) I carefully check all the essential services are running (I especially needed to do this as systemd was, until now, not starting sendmail - a bug that is now fixed). Clamd will not start after a reboot. A little investigation reveals that it won't start because it tries to create a pid file in /var/run/clamd.clamd/ - but /var/run/clamd.clamd/ does not exist. mkdir /var/run/clamd.clamd && chown clamd:clamd /var/run/clamd.clamd/ will allow the service to be started with no problems. The next reboot and... poof... /var/run/clamd.clamd/ is gone again! I have grepped the whole of /etc/* to see if there are any references to this directory with the only entries being the sensible ones in /etc/init.d/clamd-wrapper. In that init script the "stop" stanza does have the following command: "[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f $lockfile" but "$lockfile" refers to lockfile=/var/lock/subsys/clamd.${CLAMD_SERVICE} There are no other "rm" commands. So what deletes the /var/run/clamd.clamd/ directory on reboot? Thanks in advance Mark
