Freshclam Daemonize fail
Hi All,

Installed the latest win32 port of ClamAV, running well as a service for
network scanning of email.

However the freshclam is not running correctly, freshclam.log shows:

Sat Apr 26 22:02:00 2008 -> ERROR: daemonize() failed

I've googled this error with no leads, any ideas?

W2k3
P3 512Mb RAM
Clamav-win32 0.92.1


--

Regards,

Geoff Partridge

I've not tried running freshclam as a daemon. Can you configure it to run
foreground and just schedule a job to run it when you want it to run?
