Ubuntu Security :: ClamAV Cant Upgrade Or Install??
Dec 10, 2010
what a horrendous piece of software. Ive been at it 3 days trying to do something that ought to be simple and everytime i solve one problem another problem arises. at first I removed the old clamav 9.5 or something. I got the latest ubuntu release btw, and Clamav used to work when i first installed it in the previous ubuntu release. anyway, it asked me to upgrade, so since synaptic doesnt have the latest, i downloaded from sourceforge. I did the whole ./configure gave me errors like need build-essentials-- which i then did, error: need zlib.dv--- I did that one too. Now two more errors that i need to fix so I can compile it.

I am trying to upgrade my clam AV to latest 0.9.6.1. Last times I just uploaded to the server and used RPM command and it was installing. Now I cant find RPM for this ver. So I guess I need to prepare one.
I used the guide here:
Packaging software with RPM, Part 1: Building and distributing packages
by IBM
Changing all wget -> clamav
But when run this I got:
# rpmbuild -v -bb --clean clamav.spec
Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.74542
+ umask 022
+ cd /home/myclamav/BUILD
+ cd /home/myclamav/BUILD
+ rm -rf clamav-0.96.1
+ /bin/gzip -dc /home/myclamav/SOURCES/clamav-0.96.1.tar.gz
+ tar -xf -
+ STATUS=0
+ '[' 0 -ne 0 ']'
+ cd clamav-0.96.1
++ /usr/bin/id -u
+ '[' 0 = 0 ']'
+ /bin/chown -Rhf root .
++ /usr/bin/id -u
+ '[' 0 = 0 ']'
+ /bin/chgrp -Rhf root .
+ /bin/chmod -Rf a+rX,u+w,g-w,o-w .
+ $'
'
: command not found542: line 35:
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.74542 (%prep)
RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.74542 (%prep)
Is there a better way to create RPMs? or Where do I get RPM for this version? I couldn't find it through their site.

I recently ran a virus scan on my CentOS server using ClamAV's "clamscan" command to scan my entire system for virus. After the scan was complete it says that I have 1 infected file on my computer. I COMPLETELY FREAKED OUT! Is there some kind of log that I should read to see where the infected files are? Also does ClamAV just scan your system for virus or does it scan and remove the virus on the computer.If you know of an alternative open source security software,

I am working on a production system on which it is not advisable to enable on-access scan with use of Dazuko. However, I want to do an automatic scan with clamscan when the flashdrive is mounted. As far as I know, Kudzu is arranging the automount of the flashdrives.

I am a newbie in ubuntu. I did clamscan on my ubuntu /, and I got the result message as follow. it shows "486 errors" I am wondering if the result is OK or I need to do some action on it.
Known viruses: 968595
Engine version: 0.96.5
Scanned directories: 28067
Scanned files: 131696
Infected files: 0
Total errors: 486
Data scanned: 9020.40 MB
Data read: 17800.31 MB (ratio 0.51:1)
Time: 1349.479 sec (22 m 29 s)"
Also, my engine is 0.96.5. The latest version is 0.97. But "aptitude upgrade" can not upgrade the engine to 0.97. I understand 0.97 is still on testing. I am wondering if I can just stay with 0.96.5 and wait for the 0.97 passing all tests. if so, does it cause any security issue?

My windows partition is infected and I recall that it is supposed to be possible from the linux partition with ClamAV. Now I'm running Fedora12 but this forum is much more active and I suppose that doesn't make a big difference. I tried to find something on google but most procedures seem to involve a Live CD but it would be more convenient for me to just do it from my linux distro running. Is there anything I have to be aware of or is it literally just scanning the windows partition with ClamAV?

ubuntu 10.04lts, want to upgrade my clamav from 096.5 to the 097 scan engine. the ubntu repositories have only the 096.5 release, while the debian repositories have the 097 package. set the repositoriy path in the synaptic package manager, and made sure the checkbox was checked. can't see the clamav package.

I've scanned my computer (I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron) and ClamAV has issued it has found a virus called Exploit.PDF-9669. What seems strange to me is that such a warning always happens (or, at least, in the most cases) in the same folder tree "sys" and ClamAV issues the very same virus/malware warning (Exploit.PDF-9669).
An example:
sys/devices/virtual/vtconsole/vtcon0/uevent: Exploit.PDF-9669 FOUND
sys/devices/virtual/net/ppp0/address: Exploit.PDF-9669 FOUND
sys/devices/virtual/net/ppp0/broadcast: Exploit.PDF-9669 FOUND
sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/uevent: Exploit.PDF-9669 FOUND
My ClamAV version is 0.94.2/10275/Fri Jan 8 22:06:46 2010. It has been not updated since I installed Hardy in my computer last year. Is my computer in danger?

I have network shares automounted in /media and I want to exclude them from my automatic scheduled ClamAV scan in Maverick. How do I do this? I can't find any CRON link or script that actually starts the scan. Is it the Daemon that does this?

I have seen that we can scan for viruses and also virus infected files with ClamAV but is there any possibility that ClamAV can repair virus infected files.

I am tring to do this:
Code:
And i get this in return
Code:
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
I dont get any install. and the information i have collect from people say that and install should not be stopped becuase of an depend
So as any one who is semi new would do i then tried installing the depend
Code:
And i get this in return
Code:
E: Package 'phpapi-20060613+lfs' has no installation candidate
So it look like problem after problem
Does any one know why i can not install php5-clamavlib
I have UBUNTU 11.04 desktop (with zpanel installed on it)
*zpanel an open source web hosting panel for windows and NOW LINUX (zpanel has just been release on UBUNTU ONLY ).

I'm noodling around with Ubuntu 10.4.1, latest updates and kernel (2.6.32.24?).Anyway, I run ClamAv as root and it goes fine through almost all of my system (huge amount of it), including several virtual devices, where it hangs on pan0, which has some association with my network (eth0 would be for wired connection, and wlan0 for wireless, and pan0 is listed also, but I'm not at that machine right now, so I can't tell why it shows up. wlan0 is what I use to connect to the internet).Is there an issue for clamAV with virtual devices? Any workaround? I had to terminate the scan after it stayed hung for over 5 minutes on pan0.

After I did a safe-upgrade on my lenny system, clamav is now broken, which is quite a pain since my e-mail flow is now failing.
I get this in the log. CLAMAV: couldn't connect to: /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl:
I have volatile in the list, and clamav is also installed from volatiel of what I can see, so what went wrong? Is the package broken?

I am running Zimbra 5.0.2 with ClamAV and I need to upgrade clam anti virus. It's for a Centos 5.4, Dell PE 2950 machine. On their Wiki for upgrades at [URL]. They recommended either of the Red hat versions - Redhat 5.x 32-bit or the Redhat 5.x 64-bit. Are there any known problems using either of these two versions on my Centos machine? Also, want to make sure, I am assuming I need the 32 bit version, is this correct? I am asking because in the past I have learned sometimes it's better to not go with the RH versions on Centos, can't remember where I heard that, so I want to make sure before I do the install.

I've had previous versions of Clam running and have kept the system uptodate with regular yum updates.
this recently upgraded ClamAV and this will not now start. code...
From googling all i seem to find that it's a make error, but this is a binary install!
I've removed and reinstalled also.

How to determine what type of files clamav can scan? For example, if there is no unrar installed it can't scan files in it. So is there any way to find out all types of files that clamav can't scan?

This started happening sometime yesterday afternoon on a server that's been trouble free for years.
My Ubuntu update is scheduled to run every month on the 5th, so this was roughly 10 days after that. So it seems to me it's not update related. The only thing I've done on the server lately is update a spamassassin rule which required an amavis restart. That was done earlier in the week.
I've already reviewed issues at [url] and all the conditions are correct for the more recent How to.
I can also confirm that, in fact, /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl does not exist.

I have two servers complaining about ClamAV being outdated:
WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!
WARNING: Local version: 0.96.1 Recommended version: 0.96.3
Doing an aptitude update says I don't have to upgrade anything. Why is this? Must ClamAV be updated manually?

I find it incredible that installing and running reputable software such as Clamav on my system should be a major problem. I have openSUSE 11.3 with kde 4.5.2 desktop and when I try and install clamav using Yast the files are downloaded into old kde3 directory and nothing works.

I downloaded the latest ClamAV (clamav-0.96-27.1.x86_64.rpm) from the opensuse ftp site and when i double-click on the RPM and choose 'install' it says this:[PK_TMP_DIR|dir:///var/tmp/TmpDir.h1Oz1u] Repository already exists.I looked in the software manager in opensuse to see if it has the latest ClamAV package but it doesn't have the latest package or any package of ClamAV.
