ClamAV / Freshclam Installation Outdated Problem

[spinnenkop]

Hi,
About two days ago I got a message in my log
saying that ClamAV was outdated.
So I upgraded to the latest version.
I ran freshclam several times from the command line
to check if everything works.
And it does, on errors!
But... Every morning my cron.daily report still says
my ClamAV installation is outdated.
Can somebody please help me with this!

Thanks,
Spinnenkop

You've probably got it installed in two locations, i.e. under /usr and /usr/local

What application are you using ClamAV for? Which one will suggest which distribution you should be using. If you install ClamAV from tarball, it defaults to /usr/local.

[spinnenkop]

That's right
I have a freshclam.conf ins /usr/local/etc
and one in /etc
What do you suggest I should do?

You need to delete one of them, but knowing which one depends on what you're using ClamAV for, as I asked before.

Oh sorry, I'm using ClamAv in combination with Exiscan.

Then you'll need to get rid of the one in /usr/local. This should do it, though it's quite brutal:

/bin/rm -Rfv /usr/local/bin/clam*
/bin/rm -Rfv /usr/local/sbin/clam*
/bin/rm -Rfv /usr/local/lib/libclam*
/bin/rm -Rfv /usr/local/share/clam*
/bin/rm -Rfv /usr/local/include/clam*
/bin/rm -Rfv /usr/local/bin/freshclam*
/bin/rm -Rfv /usr/local/etc/clamav*

You should then upgrade ClamAV again, but make sure that when you run configure that you use the correct prefix using:

./configure --prefix=/usr

I'll try that! Thank you very much!
