zimbra 4.5.0 version Antivirus ( clamav 0.88.5 ) is shows outdated ?

[chenthil]

Hi ,
Last week , In my mail server( 4.5.0. network edition ) anti virus server went down and i have restarted them and now , it is working perfect .

While investingating the /opt/zimbra/log/clamd.log .. it shows me that clamav got outdated ...

a) Is clam AV 0.88.5 version is till supported by them ?and is clamav is providing updates for this version .? is it safe to run with the same version ..?

b) when the try to refresh the database of clamav ...

/opt/zimbra/clamav/bin/freshclam


ERROR: Please edit the example config file /opt/zimbra/clamav-0.88.5/etc/freshclam.conf.
ERROR: Please edit the example config file /opt/zimbra/clamav-0.88.5/etc/clamd.conf.
ERROR: Can't parse the config file /opt/zimbra/clamav-0.88.5/etc/clamd.conf

it showed me ... configuration file was not yet configured ...( /etc/clam.conf , /etc/freshclam.conf )

but in the admin console GUI .. it showed that updates for the clamav will happen for every 2 hrs ..

I saw the zimbra's crontab entries ...

/opt/zimbra/clamav/bin/freshclam is not executed every 2 hours as stated in GUI ...

I m confused ... sorry i m not blaming zimbra ... need to understand the anti virus part ...

Sorry the clamd.conf , and other freshclam.conf are found in /opt/zimbra/conf/ directory in configured manner ...

But still by freshclam command shows the same error .....

Before doing this operation , please stop the server ..

# cp /opt/zimbra/conf/clamd.conf /opt/zimbra/clamav-version/etc/clamd.conf

#cp /opt/zimbra/conf/freshclam.conf /opt/zimbra/clamav-version/etc/freshclam.conf

# chown zimbra.zimbra /opt/zimbra/clamav-version/etc/clamd.conf

# chown zimbra.zimbra /opt/zimbra/clamav-version/etc/freshclam.conf


creating a fresh db ..

[root@mail clamav]# rm -rf db/
[root@mail clamav]# mkdir db
[root@mail clamav]# chown -R zimbra.zimbra db/

[zimbra@mail ~]$ /opt/zimbra/clamav/bin/freshclam
