====== Clamd: Could not connect to scanner! Scanner down? ======
===== Problem =====
HAPV configured to use clamd, but fails to start.

<code|/var/log/havp/error.log>
  16 13/10/2011 21:09:42 Clamd: Could not connect to scanner! Scanner down?
  17 13/10/2011 21:09:42 ERROR: Clamd Socket Scanner failed EICAR virus test! (Could not connect to     scanner socket)
</code>

===== Solution =====
The user which is running clamav should be a member in the group havp is running. Also check the socket clamd is listen and HAPV is point to:

<code|/etc/clamav/clamd.conf>
...
AllowSupplementaryGroups true
LocalSocket /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl
...
</code>
<code|/etc/havp/havp.config>
...
ENABLECLAMD true
CLAMDSOCKET /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl
...
</code>
