[clamav-users] Thousands of log entries for real filename

I setup *clamd* running as the clamscan user. I have *clamonacc* running as
root.

I was not able to get *clarmonacc* to use syslog so I pass it a log file
path argument. It is logging but for each file on the scan mount of */* it
has a log entry for not having the real file name.


Failed to determine real filename of
/tmp/clamav-da9a1749ec60ae0db9e40b6fc02c141b.tmp.

This is the config file I am using with *clamonacc*
TCPAddr localhost
TCPSocket 3310
OnAccessMountPath /

The only references I can find from Google is to three code repositories
that show the source code for the file that contains the message " Failed
to determine real filename of"

It is still making these logs after an hour.
Will it stop?
Does it start over when the service is restarted?
Is there a config option I could add that would allow it to get the real
filename?
Is there a config option I could add that would suppress this message?
