[ZendTo] Re: Large uploads not working on 64-bit Centos VM

Tue Sep 6 16:56:00 BST 2011

It's referring to the "incoming" directory permissions. If it is using 
disk space then it's probably when it tries to set the permissions at 
the end of the upload when it closes the file it uploaded. It's unlikely 
to be related to ClamAV.

But you can try disabling the virus scanning. You can usually get away 
with setting the virus scanner setting in preferences.php to
     'clamdscan' => '/bin/true',
and then give it another try.
Clamd and clamdscan are governed by App-Armor (or SELinux, same thing, 
different name). The docs on the website tell you how to configure 
SELinux to let clamd and clamdscan work.
