how can i fix it?
thanks
Howdy,
It sounds like you have an older version of ClamAV on your system... what distribution and distribution version are you running?
-Eric
yes, that's old. i mean 0.86, but however it's old. i'm on Ubuntu 8.04 with virtualmin gpl. How could i upgrade only ClamAV? if i do "apt-get upgrade", do i get all my packages upgraded? i'd want only to upgrade ClamAV...
thanks
Howdy,
Well, the latest available for Ubuntu 8.04 isn't 0.86... ClamAV 0.95.3 is the most recent for that version of Ubuntu.
You may want to make sure you're ClamAV packages are up to date.
You can do that from within the Virtualmin GUI, or by typing "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" on the command line.

What do you get if you type: dpkg -l 'clamav*'

I got the "Malformed database" error when installing Virtualmin GPL today and fixed it by running
freshclamas root. It would be great to see this command added to the Virtualmin install script.
