Hi,
I want to move my mail server from sendmail to postfix over christmas. I've got a test server running with the following:
postfix dovecot postgrey amavisd-new clamav spamassassin
I've followed the howto's on the wiki http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos with the exception that I installed amavisd-new and clamav from the EPEL repo rather than rpmforge.
Things work OK with the exception of clamav. When I start clamav I get the following error.
[root@newgoext ~]# service clamd.amavisd start Starting clamd.amavisd: ERROR: Missing argument for option at line 2 ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file /etc/clamd.d/amavisd.conf [FAILED]
As this is a test server I'v set selinux to permissive so it doesn't look like a selinux problem.
Thanks,
Tony

So, did you check the file /etc/clamd.d/amavisd.conf ?

Yep. It was a parse error in the installed file not an open error.
cat /etc/clamd.avisd.conf
# Use system logger. #LogSyslog
# Specify the type of syslog messages - please refer to 'man syslog' # for facility names. LogFacility LOG_MAIL
# This option allows you to save a process identifier of the listening # daemon (main thread). PidFile /var/run/amavisd/clamd.pid

# Path to a local socket file the daemon will listen on. LocalSocket /var/spool/amavisd/clamd.sock
When I commented out LogSyslog and FixStaleSocket it started ok.
Thanks for stating the obvious sometimes that's the hardest thing to see ;-)
