clamAV upgrade error

[sebby]

Hi,

Today I was unable to upgrade either MailScanner Script (2.79-> 2.80) or clamAV (v0.96.5 New:v0.97) from MailScanner FE GUI. Upon launching the upgrade, the scripts indicate that it is downloading the source files and then the page simply times out (in WHM). For the clamAV upgrade, this is the error I get in cpanel logs:

Code: Select all

No specific error was reported during the MailScanner Script upgrade and I managed to upgrade the script from shell (/usr/src/msinstall /sh install.sh).

How can I get clamAv to upgrade properly?

I thank you in advance for your assistance.

Are you running any other virus scanner on your server, such as rtvscand? If you are, it is probably deleting the downloaded file immediately after it has been saved. You need to stop the other virus scanner process and try again.

No I don’t run other virus scanners on this box. This is the typical MailScanner Service Package installed by Chirpy a while ago.

Well... Just retried using FF3 instead of IE8 and everything went smoothly. Don’t know if this is a browser issue or a transient server problem.

In any event, could I have been able to safely upgrade clamAV with the following commands:

Code: Select all

./configure
make
make install

Thanks.
