Well.

Try installing both packages 'clamav' and 'clamav-daemon'

You should learn how to debug this kind of 'basic stuff'.

That returns nothing, which makes sense.

The issue is that when I try and create the user in my Dockerfile, I can't because they already exist.

Hi folks,

I'm having some trouble getting the clamav-daemon running on Heroku inside Docker.

I'm running a simple server with FastAPI to get and check documents uploaded to an S3 bucket.

I've createdt  an issue for this at https://github.com/tutorcruncher/tc-virus-checker/issues/5/ for those who would rather comment there.

Deploying runs fine, but the clamav-daemon does not get started, and I can't figure out why. If I shell in and run service clamav-daemon status, I get:

chown: invalid user: 'clamav'
chown: invalid user: 'clamav'

It's my understanding that the user clamav gets created when we install clamav-daemon, and indeed, when I edited my Dockerfile to add them, I get an error saying they already exist.

Running freshclam downloads the database correctly but then gives me the following output (presumably because clamav-daemon never ran):

Wed Mar 24 18:38:23 2021 -> ^Clamd was NOT notified: Can't connect to clamd through /var/run/clamav/c
lamd.ctl: No such file or directory

Any help would be appreciated.
