[clamav-users] Failed to start Generic clamav scanner daemon.

[Maarten Broekman]

Eric,
  The most helpful logs will be those of the ClamAV daemon itself. Those
should be configured in the clamd.conf file or, if configured, via
journalctl.

  It would also be helpful to know what the clamd systemctl configuration
settings are, as well as the clamd.conf settings. A misconfiguration in
where the PID file is expected (for example) can cause systemd to have
issues starting the service.

  Additionally, you should try starting clamd and clamscan by hand to see
if they provide additional, more helpful, messages than the limited value
messages from systemD.
