Problem with clamav addon module

2004-09-22 09:58:02 1CA8ZD-00084l-Ct malware acl condition: clamd: unable to connect to UNIX socket /var/run/clamav/clamd (No such file or directory)

I do not have a file clamd in the /var/run/clamav directory.

It seems this file is missing:
srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Sep 22 09:24 clamd=

Any ideas why that file disappears? This is the 6th or 7th time if got that error.

How do i manually set the permissions to srwxrwxrwx ?

I know you can fix this in exim.conf, to look for the socket in /var, and idea why or when this changed? I just stopped working all of a sudden.

The socket gets made wherever you set it to be in /etc/clamav.conf
You will need to change exim.conf to look for it wherever it is set in clamav.conf.

How do I recreate a socket?

WHat is the unix command to make this:
srwxrwxrwx
I tried chmod 777+s filename
but it didnt work.
