Public bug reported:
When using clamscan virus scanner plugin with qpsmtpd, it dies with the
following error message:
Fri Aug 19 20:08:45 2011 utest-oos32[5453]: clamscan results:
/usr/bin/clamscan: unrecognized option `--config-file=/etc/clamd.conf'
ERROR: Unknown option passed
ERROR: Can't parse command line options
Fri Aug 19 20:08:45 2011 utest-oos32[5453]: ClamAV error: /usr/bin/clamscan
--stdout --config-file=/etc/clamd.conf --no-summary
/var/spool/qpsmtpd/1313773725:5453:0 2>&1: 2
Fri Aug 19 20:08:45 2011 utest-oos32[5453]: 452 Message denied temporarily
The plugin is configured like this:
root@utest-oos32:/etc/qpsmtpd# cat /etc/qpsmtpd/plugins |grep clamav |grep -v
"^#"
virus/clamav clamscan_path=/usr/bin/clamscan action=reject max_size=209715
tmp_dir=/tmp/qpsmtpd.clam
clamscan's command line options changed a lot and qpsmtpd's clamav
plugin needs to be updated to not pass unknow parameters to clamscan
(--config-file was removed, but I didn't find this in clamav's changelog
anywhere).
Note: clamdscan plugin works just fine
Note2: as clamav 0.97.2 gets backported all the way to Hardy, this needs to be
fixed in every release (Hardy, Lucid, Maverick, Natty) otherwise clamscan will
not work
Note3: clamdscan (which works) should be the preferred plugin to use (because
it's way faster) but this still need fixing, maybe not everybody is running
clamav-daemon
