Everyone, I am putting together a new CentOS 7 mail server for our organization and am having some difficulty getting clamav to work with the clamav- milter for sendmail. I have set /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf to use clamscan as the user as well as root as the user and the status command of systemctl results in the same error messages : ● clamd at scan.service - Generic clamav scanner daemon Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/clamd at scan.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: failed (Result: start-limit) since Thu 2016-09-29 17:53:11 CDT; 1min 38s ago Process: 1891 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/clamd -c /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf -- foreground=yes (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Main PID: 1891 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Sep 29 17:53:11 IrGw3.EcCare.com systemd[1]: Unit clamd at scan.service entered failed state.

I have tried running : /usr/sbin/clamd -c /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf --foreground=yes with the foreground set to yes and no and with the user set in scan.conf as clamscan or root and it works fine. I have not been able to figure out what is happening with the command : systemctl start clamd at scan The same error messages occur at boot with this command as well as on the command line. Do any of you have suggestions. Thanks much, Greg Ennis
