Clamav pfSense missing clamav.sock on /var/run/clamav
-
Hey there, I have some issue. I installed pfSense 2.6.0 version and configured squid on it. Then tried to configure clamav and this one refused to start.
So, I checked in many places unsing information from many forums and..... found many clues like:
/var/log/server.log
Sun Apr 16 16:26:17 2023, 67437/21540864, squidclamav.c(2081) dconnect: Sun Apr 16 16:26:17 2023, 67437/21540864, ERROR Can't connect to clamd on local socket /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock. Sun Apr 16 16:26:17 2023, 67437/21540864, squidclamav.c(787) squidclamav_end_of_data_handler: Sun Apr 16 16:26:17 2023, 67437/21540864, ERROR Can't connect to Clamd daemon.Then, I went to /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf and found directive LocalSocket pointing to /var/run/clamd/clamd.sock
So, I checked pointed location and realyzed that clamd directory in that location is empty.
How can I fix this situation??. I am not a handy person in freeBSD.
I think clamav installation went wrong during squid pkg installation. Icap service is runing but clamd service refuse to start (oviously).
PS: Squid is working properly, only issued when icap service is runing.
Regards Leo.

Can you connect to the pfSense web-configurator?
If so, you may show us a screenshot of the config page
like shown below;
You can try out the two following things;
- set it up, click save, and run an signature update
- go to the main page an have a look for all running tasks
can be added as a widget on the dachboard
It should be now showing the following like shown below;
The second try out is to connect to the console (Putty)
and set up the following command;[23.01-RELEASE][root@xxxxxxxxx]/root: pkg update Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue... pfSense-core repository is up to date. Updating pfSense repository catalogue... pfSense repository is up to date. All repositories are up to date. [23.01-RELEASE][root@xxxxxxxxxx]/root: pkg upgrade Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue... pfSense-core repository is up to date. Updating pfSense repository catalogue... pfSense repository is up to date. All repositories are up to date. Checking for upgrades (0 candidates): 100% Processing candidates (0 candidates): 100% Checking integrity... done (0 conflicting) Your packages are up to date.That you can be sure that all of your installed packages are
