[clamav-users] No supported database files found

[Rob Sterenborg]

I don't know what username you need to use.
- Check your freshclam.conf for the DatabaseOwner to know which username you need.
- Check your /etc/passwd file to make sure this username does not exist.
- If it doesn't exist, check if another username exist that has almost the same name and was meant for you to use.
- If still can't find such username, create it.
- If such username does exist, modify your freshclam.conf and/or clamd.conf to use this username.
- chown the directory and set permissions accordingly.

This is basic *nix stuff, not really ClamAV related..

Dear Rob, I have created the clamav directory with mkdir command, but its owner is "roort" ,Do I must change its owner to "clamav " ? as I have not any user by this name in my system

 You skipped my first step: "make sure the directory exists". This means: if it doesn't exist, create it and set the owner/group to the user clamav runs as and permissions accordingly. When you've done that, run freshclam again.
