Hello all,
Been having an issue today that I can't seem to solve, so reaching out to others much more
knowledgeable for help/advice/assistance.
I ran the software update this morning and installed 134 packages, clamd was one of the packages.
Upon completion of the update, I needed to reboot the box. During bootup I got the following
issue:
Starting Clam AntiVirus Daemon: WARNING: Ignoring deprecated option
AllowSupplementaryGroups at line 194
LibClamAV Error: cli_cvdload: Corrupted CVD header
LibClamAV Error: Can't load /var/lib/clamav/main.cvd: Malformed database
LibClamAV Error: cli_loaddbdir(): error loading database /var/lib/clamav/main.cvd
Sat Jul 14 09:04:46 2018 -> !Malformed database
[FAILED]
Clamd failed to start.
I modified the clamd.conf conf file to comment out the deprecated option above, this seemed to
allow clamd to start following a second reboot.
I followed some suggested actions from the clamd.net site, namely I ensured my DNS was still
working, that I could reach clamd.net, and also removed the mirrors.dat and main.cvd files in an
effort to get clamd to update via freshclam.
When I run 'freshclam -v' I get the following data return:
[root@centos clamav]# freshclam -v
Current working dir is /var/lib/clamav

Update failed. Your network may be down or none of the mirrors listed in
/etc/freshclam.conf is
working. Check https://www.clamav.net/documents/official-mirror-faq for possible
reasons.
----END Freshclam -v command-----
My 0.100.0 version is currently supported, so I know that is not the issue. I tried deleting the
mirrors,dat file and re-running freshclam (did not reboot the box between file deletion and
command line execution), no effect...
Also, I have the default mirror location in freshclam.conf, which seems to be fine considering its
been like this for years. I tried to locate the 'country code' paramater but gave that up after I
got a headache looking over the documentation. I don't think its relevant to this issue anyway.
I'm stuck on how to fix this. Nothing on the web shows what resolution is, nor how to fix it.
Seems like I can get and receive emails, but I have no idea if they are being properly scanned.
Thanks in advance,
Jay
