clamd update to 0.93 failed on some freebsd boxes

[nyjimbo]

Today we did a upcp to the new CURRENT, which appears to upgrade clamd to 0.93 and while one machine came up clean with clamd the other did not. We didnt get any errors or anything via email that clamd was down (probably because it couldnt process email with clamd down) but a few hours later I checked that machine and saw a huge paniclog full of errors about clamd.

Restarting clamd manually came up with an error about an "Archive...." entry in clamd.conf and thats why it would not start. Had to edit out the statement and then was able to bring up clamd with a "restartsrv_clamd" and then ran a "freshclam" to be sure it was all ok.

We had experienced this problem recently with a non-cpanel box so we knew what it was. I am not sure if the "Archive...." statement was put in by us or if it was there from the start.

Another note, I see a "freshclam.conf" on both freebsd boxes with todays date, brand new OR replacements of the originals?.

Regardless, now freshclam does not write to /var/log/clam-update.log and the entry in
freshclam.conf shows it to write to /var/log/freshclam.log BUT is commented out.

If I uncomment it and run freshclam it produces errors like it cant write to it due to permissions.

Seems like the same things we are seeing on non-cpanel boxes when updating to 0.93.

NOTE: This is also happening on our Centos 5.1 box. Clamd is running, but a new freshclam.conf is installed and no more clam-update.log entries.

I'm not noticing any problems with ClamAV 0.93 ...

Except ...

It seems to be crashing three or four times a day since the upgrade (last weekend). It restarts just fine, so no damage is done except for whatever slips by in the minute or two while it's down, but still ...

My problem belongs to a buggy gcc compiler.

Changing the gcc compiler to a proper working
version did solve this issue.
