i installed clamav given in opensuse 11.1 dvd
i also updated its database through one click install,then i came to know that i need to have klamav as a frontend to use it in gui so i installed klamav from one click install
it says its initializing database from me/.local/database
and it cannot find database there as adatabase initialization error pops up.
where did the database i installed go??
AFAIK the clamav database files are
main.cvd
daily.cvd
. Use the search (set the search path to /).
what is afaik?
klamav also shows different update options for clamav and klamav why?
clamav stores databases in /var/lib/clamav by default
freshclam and clamd uses the same directory by default too
for some reason klamav looks in ~/.klamav/database
klamav i think has a option to change the default location
nevetheless one would prefer to use freshclam to update the database
note, even if klamav cannot find databese clamd will find it if you didn’t change its settings in /etc/clamd.conf
