Mailing List Archive: Problems for getting start working on ClamAV project

I am having below problems for getting start working on ClamAV project.

1:
I have downloaded ClamAV project from below location:
"git clone git://clamwin.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/clamwin/clamav-win32.git"

I have build it in Visual Studio 2008. But while running executable it give below errors:

ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file C:\Users\Nilesh.admin-PC\clamav-win32\contrib\msvc\Debug\Win32\clamd.conf

ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file C:\Users\Nilesh.admin-PC\clamav-win32\co
ntrib\msvc\Debug\Win32\freshclam.conf

Loading Clamav DB...
LibClamAV Error: cl_load(): Can't get status of daily.cvd
Error loading daily.cvd...

2.
Usage C:\Users\Nilesh.admin-PC\clamav-win32\contrib\msvc\Debug\Win32\unscrambler.exe scrambled.dmp
What is exactly that "scrambled.dmp" files and their use..?

3.
The file "clamscan.exe" generated after build in Visual Studio. I used that file for scanning some viruses samples.
Result summary was:
----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 2341759
Engine version: devel@clamwin msvc - Jun 10 2013
Scanned directories: 1
Scanned files: 7
Infected files: 5
Data scanned: 0.50 MB
Data read: 0.45 MB (ratio 1.09:1)
Time: 19.889 sec (0 m 19 s)

But i scanned same samples using "clamscan.exe" which is generated after installing ClamWin Antivirus it gives scan summary as below:
----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 2341759
Engine version: 0.97.8
Scanned directories: 1
Scanned files: 7
Infected files: 5
Data scanned: 0.50 MB
Data read: 0.45 MB (ratio 1.09:1)
Time: 7.051 sec (0 m 7 s)

There is huge difference in scan time. Why...?
Is ClamAV project at location "git clone git://clamwin.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/clamwin/clamav-win32.git" is outdated..?
If that so then send me URL to download latest ClamAV project.

3.
I am getting problem to understand the working flow of project. So please help me.

Best Regards,
Nilesh Salunke.

These questions all relate to the clamwin project. Please review this site to find out how to get questions to them:

Although I can tell you that your configuration files aren't where they are expected to be (question 1). You have to provide a clamd.conf and freshclam.conf. Again, please talk to the clamwin folks to ensure your configuration is inline with how their project works.
