[7.006] HTTP Proxy Fails

Don't know what happened this morining, but I canit seem to browse the internet when the Antivirus is turned on in the HTTP Proxy. I keep getting:

error (in module 0)

In the HTTP Proxy logs I am getting this error message:

2007:07:31-13:02:54 (none) httpproxy[25280]: id="3458" severity="error" sys="System" sub="av" name="Failed to initialize virus database" scanner="css" database="/var/db/authentium"

Can someone help?

  • Sounds like the Authentium AV database has become corrupted. There should be a way from the CLI to force a redownload of the newest one, but I don't know what it is. One of the more Linux savvy here should be able to give you the proper commands.  Or you can give Astaro support a buzz.  They're usually quite speedy with responses.
     
    One thing I can suggest trying is go to Web Security and in HTTP>Anti-Virus and/or HTTP Profiles>Filter Actions, depending on your setup, switch from Dual Scan to Single Scan mode. This should turn off Authentium temporarily. You'll still have ClamAV, so will still have some protection.

  • Thanks for your help. However I do not use profiles, just use transparent proxy for internal networks. The Single Scan uses the Authentium scanner not ClamAV. ClamAV is only enabled with Dual Scan. And disabling the Antivirus and re-enabling it in the web proxy does not work. Stoping and starting the web proxy does not work. 

    Thank you again for your help. Anyone out there know how to manually request an update of the Authentium AV database?
  • Doh, sorry.  Got them reversed.
