Are you able to write data to /usr/share/clamav/ yourself (e.g. touching a file that doesn't yet exist)?

[constantine]

Yes. I can .

root@constan [/usr/share/clamav]# touch test.v
root@constan [/usr/share/clamav]# ls
./  ../  daily.cvd  main.cvd  test.v

[logicsupport]

It could be due to /usr/share/clamav having incorrect ownership/permissions.

Make sure /usr/share/clamav/ is owned by the right user . If it is owned by user "qscand" then try to change it to user "clamav"

And in the file freshclam.conf change DatabaseOwner to clamav

DatabaseOwner clamav

Tank you for your help but all these setting was OK !

# ls -l
total 18836
drwxrwxr-x  2 clamav clamav     4096 Jul 29 14:12 ./
drwxr-xr-x 77 root   root       4096 May  9 22:08 ../

-rw-rw-r--  1 clamav clamav 18462921 Apr  3 13:49 main.cvd
-rw-r--r--  1 root   root          0 Jul 27 19:08 test.v

Also ownership of clamav folder is clamav !

and DatabaseOwner is clamav in freshclam.conf

Through WHM's Plugin try uninstalling and then re-installing Clamav by unchecking the "ClamAV Connector" and save it then go back to that page and check it to re-install ClamAV.

Thank you for your reply

I already did it .
Also I try to install it manually by source . When the installation completed , I see the same error again for update clamav with freshclam !!!

see if you've exceeded your quota also do you have enough disk space?

Check all the disk quotas with:

repquota -av

Yes . It seem clamav has limited space usage !
How can I resolve it ?

# repquota -av | grep clamav
clamav    +-   40348    5120    5120   none      12     0     0

Here is tables of quota :
Block limits File limits
User used soft hard grace used soft hard grace
----------------------------------------------------------------------

This can be done with edquota command

To change quota of user clamav
# edquota clamav
