clamscan error

[NixTree]

Hi

IS there any fix for this issue ? I need to get clamdscan running and have to load some custom db as well.

Hi

Do you have more details of what it took to fix this issue ?

HI @NixTree

That really depends on what's causing the issue. Can you show the output of the following:

systemctl status clamd.service
journactl -xe

 

[NixTree]

This is fixed as it was an issue with clamdscan not starting and have to fix the clamd socket file and folder permissions. I have had changed the location to a custom one.
