clamassassin - centos 4.3

There is no output - just comes back to the prompt.

I can see in /tmp 109 empty files beginning with the prefix sess_ and owned by root. What are these for?

 

[SOLVED] clamscan error 50

Hello,
I am using a Xen VM with ispconfig.
This kind of clamscan error 50 happened at one of my machines because of misconfigurations of ownership and permissions of mail and user directories and files.
Spamassassin and ClamAV are very strict about its directories and files permissions and ownership.

First, corrected the ownership and permissions of /var/mail/username mail file (postfix):

Code:

chown boletins:mail /var/mail/boletins
chmod 664 /var/mail/boletins

WEIRD: You should configure permissions this way. THEN postfix will automatically modify for stricter security when the first msg arrive to the inbox.
I do not know, yet, why it did not work when using the final permissions at first place... The log files showed that postfix reconfigured the files this way ...

Code:

user@localhost:~$ ls -la /var/mail

-rw-------   1 boletins     mail     556 2007-11-19 14:02 boletins

Then, you should verify the user directories and files for ownership and permissions.

Code:

localhost:~# cd /var/www/web1/user/boletins
localhost:/var/www/web1/user/boletins# chmod 755 /var/www/web1/user/boletins
localhost:/var/www/web1/user/boletins# pwd

I hope this helps someone.
You should compare and adapt these permissions and ownership with a fresh new user created at your machine.
