ClamAV 0.99.3

Do you not see other versions? (as installed)
No I just did a "gcc --version" to see what was installed. Next to that I check with "yum list gcc" and seen the same version. Same on other Centos 6.9 servers.
Or should I use other commands to check?

This is indeed true! Please wait with this update! There is now a bug report at ClamAV. There seems to be a problem with G++. I have removed G++ on a test machine and then it works. Do not do that on production servers!

thanks. that helped.
Now I got a new errors:

There is a problem in combination with G++, Which version do you have? Please check gcc --version and g++ --version.
 
Thank you Dave but I already had done the update, hence the little error message I posted. I will wait with further actions until I read things are fixed or how to fix it on production servers.

Are people still holding back on upgrading to ClamAV 0.99.3, or has DirectAdmin added som patches/fixes to ClamAV in Custombuild? I have not upgraded from 0.99.2 yet, my servers is CentOS 7-servers.
 
Mine failed. Also on CentOS 7

How can I get it back up and running?

I upgraded when 0.99.3 became available and so far it's running without any issues.

@Fred. Did you try to downgrade back to 0.99.2?

I would like to do that, but I don't remember how to do that.
Do you know?

Thx. :)

Ok, I found this handy tool :cool:
https://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=565

So I tried to downgrade back to 0.99.2 (That one was working before) but now it also fails.

This is where it fails

Code:
checking for OpenSSL installation... /usr
checking for SSL_library_init in -lssl... no
configure: error: Your OpenSSL installation is misconfigured or missing

*** There was an error while trying to configure clamav.

Can you change --nofork=yes by --foreground=yes in /etc/systemd/system/clamd.service? Does it work?

No, the problems with the latest ClamAV version can't solved by DirectAdmin. This must be done by ClamAV. There is a bug report but they have not responded yet. :(

Thank you! With this version we also have problems. For the time being, remains at ClamAV version 0.99.2.

Thank you so much for that Dave :cool:
That worked, ClamAV 0.99.3 is up and running.

From what I read --nofork is outdated and we should use --foreground from now.
I'm glad I learned something. :D
 
Since today, ClamAV 0.99.4 is out with fixes for GCC 6 and C++11 compatibility issues. Can you test if you can now build ClamAV?

I have sent DirectAdmin a message or they can add it to the files! :)
 
Thank you dave097 for the information and letting directadmin know
I'm also waiting on this new version because of the compile errors
 
On my systems it installed, I just got an error notice that "clamdtop" would not be installed since ncurses could not be found.
However, nurses is installed and latest version so I don't understand this one.

For the rest it looked good on my systems.
