When i use freshclam command i get

Code:

ERROR: /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log is locked by another process
ERROR: Problem with internal logger (UpdateLogFile = /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log).
ERROR: initialize: libfreshclam init failed.
ERROR: Initialization error!

I found this https://www.howtoforge.com/community/threads/clamav-database-update-error.76634/ and tried to rename files, restart clamav, but problem is same. At all, during this was automatically removed rename files in /var/lib/clamav/ and there is just mirrors.dat

Any ideas what should i to do?

 

Solved!

Restart of clamav does not help after removed files...so i did reboot of vps- after that was problem same but was created new files in /var/lib/clamav/

after that i run

Code:

sudo systemctl stop clamav-freshclam.service

and manually

Code:

sudo freshclam

now works
