[ERR 009] Failed to start Virus Scanner. Please re

Hi all,

since yesterday midnight one of my firewalls, which runs under 4.030 send this message:

[ERR 009] Failed to start Virus Scanner. Please repeat Pattern Up2Date

I tried to repeat Pattern Up2Date, but I am told there are no new patterns.

So i deleted all files in .../Bases and uploaded the Pattern again, but no success.

Even rebooting the system didn't help.

/sbin/init.d/av-scanner restart only gives:  'failed'

Any ideas?

  • Hi, 

    finally I found a 2 year old thread which helped me solve the problem.

    I deleted the files /usr/lib/kaydaemon/exiscan.htg, .../exiscan.htx and .../exiscan.atom.bin (all with date of feb18) and restarted the scanner.
    Now it stated "OK"
  • Hi Walter,

    same prob here with our asl (4.029) since friday (without changing anything in our config).

    I´ve contacted astaro support and only suggestion  was to install newest update (4.030) - which I´ve installed saturday night - and restart pattern up2date. Without success.

    Your solution worked fine! Thx alot! :-)
    (one note: folder is /usr/lib/kavdaemon ;-)

    cu
