Major Issue

Post by sharktech »

Hi all

having a major issue that mail keeps backing up due to Clamd failing and restarting, its happened all of a sudden.

I keep getting this in the logs :

Feb 17 12:39:42 spam MailScanner[17576]: New Batch: Found 124 messages waiting
Feb 17 12:39:42 spam MailScanner[17576]: New Batch: Scanning 30 messages, 2806292 bytes
Feb 17 12:39:43 spam MailScanner[17576]: Virus and Content Scanning: Starting
Feb 17 12:39:44 spam MailScanner[17576]: Clamd::ERROR:: COULD NOT CONNECT TO CLAMD, RECOMMEND RESTARTING DAEMON :: .
Feb 17 12:39:44 spam MailScanner[17576]: Virus Scanning: Clamd found 1 infections
Feb 17 12:39:44 spam MailScanner[17576]: Virus Scanning: No virus scanners worked, so message batch was abandoned and re-tried!

I have set virus scanning to no but still mail keeps backing up.

I'm at a loss at the min and really need help getting this sorted, its slowing us down majorly.

Thanks in Advance
