Hi all,

Sorry for cross-posting but it seams that the members from the other list
went on vacation- and I'm in a jam

I run  exim 4.69 clamav .93 and spamassassin on a freebsd box  - basically it
gets my smtp traffic, checks for spam virus etc,, then forwards it to my
mailserver- 

Suddenly last night it stopped working , I check the paniclog and all I see
is

2008-08-21 09:44:26 1KWASY-0000EF-PB malware acl condition: clamd: unable to
connect to UNIX socket /var/run/clamav/clamd (No such file or directory)
2008-08-21 09:44:34 1KWASh-0000EZ-Pq malware acl condition: clamd: unable to
connect to UNIX socket /var/run/clamav/clamd (No such file or directory)
2008-08-21 09:45:09 1KWARf-0000EG-En malware acl condition: clamd: unable to
connect to UNIX socket /var/run/clamav/clamd (No such file or directory)
2008-08-21 09:45:38 1KWATZ-0000EG-9e malware acl condition: clamd: unable to
connect to UNIX socket /var/run/clamav/clamd (No such file or directory) 

I unistalled clamav 
"make deinstall"

Then "&& make clean"

Then "make install clean"


And I still get the same errors- the weird part is that when I do "top"
clamd IS running-

22089 clamav      1   4    0 62132K 61616K accept   0:00  0.00% clamd

Any help would be greatly appreciated as im rerouting my mail now- and
getting bombarded with spam


Thx
