Hi there. I've tried to enable ClamAV Server through VirtualMin but it doesn't start.
This appears in a log file:
Jun 19 19:24:33 green6119 systemd: Started Clam AntiVirus userspace daemon. Jun 19 19:24:33 green6119 systemd: Starting Clam AntiVirus userspace daemon... Jun 19 19:24:33 green6119 clamd: ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file /etc/clamd.conf Jun 19 19:24:33 green6119 systemd: clamav-daemon.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE Jun 19 19:24:33 green6119 systemd: Unit clamav-daemon.service entered failed state. Jun 19 19:24:33 green6119 systemd: clamav-daemon.service failed.
SpamAssassin Server has started correctly and I have switched this to server mode, and I wanted to do the same with the Antivirus..
I'm running CentOS 7 on a 64 bit server.
Thanks, Craig
Howdy,
Hmm, are there any additional errors in the email logs?
Also, does the file "/etc/clamd.conf" exist on your system?

Its a bug with Centos 7. Vmin is not able to start ClamAV and you must do it manually with "systemctl start clamd@scan". After you start it manually you must do the same in Wmin - bootup module if not ClamAV will not start on next server reboot.

The Diabolico comment is the solution, thanks, don't forget to enter to Webmin->Bootup and Shutdown->clamd@scan.service and set start on boot to yes.

Thank you very much. I've started it manually and it seems to have done the trick!
Nuts, I wonder if that issue is related to the missing packages issue described here. Could you take a peek at this bug report, and see if the steps here allow you to start and stop ClamAV from within Virtualmin:
