Summary: Be clamav (and other virus scanners) friendly
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=458521
Summary: Be clamav (and other virus scanners) friendly Product: Fedora Version: 9 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: low Priority: medium Component: amavisd-new AssignedTo: steve@silug.org ReportedBy: kim+rh@alleroedderne.adsl.dk QAContact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: fedora-perl-devel-list@redhat.com Estimated Hours: 0.0 Classification: Fedora
Description of problem: Clamd cannot read the files it is asked to scan, if it is run as the user clamav, even though it is a member of the amavis group
How reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install clamav and amavisd-new 2. Add clamav user to amavis group 3. Scan some mails
Actual results: Aug 8 14:52:47 jukebox amavis[25410]: (25410-12) (!!)ask_av (ClamAV-clamd) FAILED - unexpected result: /var/spool/amavisd/tmp/amavis-20080808T135109-25410/parts: lstat() failed. ERROR\n
Additional info: The two directories /var/spool/amavisd /var/spool/amavisd/tmp needs to be group readable/executable (workaround: chmod g+rx /var/spool/amavisd /var/spool/amavisd/tmp)
It is possible to run clamav as amavisd user but then you do not get the security of using different users (and you need to change some other dirs. to be owned by amavis user).

This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'.
Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life.
Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.
Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.
If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.
Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
