Hi Micah, I just posted a detailed response to G.W.'s thoughts but from my POV, clamd is not starting up after waiting 29 minutes. If a ticket is not open, I'll get a BZ filed after the next round of debugging.  Want to make sure it isn't something stupid on my end.

Hi Kevin,

 

Do I understand you correctly that clamd is hanging indefinitely?

A few things that may help…

 

  1. Lets track this in a Bugzilla ticket: https://bugzilla.clamav.net/enter_bug.cgi?product=ClamAV
  2. Can you provide the clamconf output?
  3. Try running clamd Debug yes set in clamd.conf.  The output probably won’t show much, but perhaps there will be something.
  4. Kevin’s note about using `script` to record and review the log is also interesting.  The libssl version mismatch between what libclamav pulled in and what libcurl was compiled with (observed by Ged) is certainly concerning, thought it shouldn’t affect clamd startup (no curl dependency there).  Did you observe anything similar?
