Hello!

Can someone please examine my clamav.log and help me to correct the errors?

I keep trying to open the .pdf documentation on clamav from the terminal and keep getting "Access Denied."

Thanks to all in advance!

Hi,

Seems to me the user user doesn't exist.
AFAIK, you need to create a user clamav.
My clamd.conf contains
User clamav

You also need to create this user in your aliases


Regards

Thank You! I'll give it a shot!
