    Hi.

    I get segmentation fault message when starting clamd:

    Code:
    root@noa [~]# /etc/init.d/exim restart
Shutting down clamd:                                       [FAILED]

                                                           [FAILED]
Starting exim:                                             [  OK  ]
    I've reinstalled clamavconnector via "Manage plugins" without errors.

    When I try to start service, clamd.log says:

    Code:
    +++ Started at Sun Jun 19 09:15:47 2011
clamd daemon 0.97 (OS: linux-gnu, ARCH: x86_64, CPU: x86_64)
Log file size limited to 1048576 bytes.
Reading databases from /usr/share/clamav
Not loading PUA signatures.
Loaded 972336 signatures.
    but service is not running...

    Code:
    root@noa [~]# ps ax | grep clamd
18088 pts/1    S+     0:00 grep clamd
    The server is running WHM 11.30.0 (build 32) on CENTOS 5.6 x86_64 virtuozzo and it is updated.

    Any idea on how to fix this?

    Thank you,
    Xisco.

    Thanks, k-planethost, for your answer.

    I have tried to update clamd but I don't know how to do it in WHM. I think the only way is using git and latest repository. I don't know how to deal with it in cPanel.

    Despite this, I have another cPanel server running clamd 0.97 without problems, so I don't think the problem is in the version used:

    Code:
    [root@ponent ~]# cat /tmp/clamd.log

    Have you attempted an earlier install via some other source than cPanel. If so, remove clamav from cPanel, run the two commands below and then reinstall clamavconnector from WHM again.

    rm -f /usr/lib/libclam*
    rm -f /usr/local/lib/libclam*

    No, I haven't.

    All these files were deleted by uninstall process. clamd still fails.

    Thank you, JawadArshad.

    At this point in time, please open up a ticket using WHM > Support Center > Contact cPanel or using the link in my signature for us to investigate further. Please post the ticket number here upon submitting one. Thanks!

    Also, please check the WHM > Tweak Settings area for this setting:

    If it is only set to 256, please increase to either unlimited or at least 512MB and save that area. Then try uninstalling and reinstalling clamav connector in WHM > Manage Plugins area again.

    Done. Request #1650454

    It was "unlimited" yet. This was one of the changes I made trying to solve this.

    Thank you,
    Xisco.

    Solved by Amir. He made a fresh install after removing /usr/share/clamav/ directory.

    Thaks,
    Xisco.
