Have you checked the filesystem rights of the ClamAV Socket file ?

I’m still having this issue with ClamAV, and my *nix skills are horrible.

Can I get the simple version of what I’m to do with "chsh www-data",  as I’ve been running without AV for several months.
My apache users is indeed “www-data”.

Easier to use "chsh www-data" or whatever your Apache user is.

Edit your /etc/passwd file to set the shell for your Apache user to /bin/bash.
Then "pwconv" so the change takes effect.
Then try this
    su - apache (or whatever user your Apache is running as)
    clamdscan /var/zendto/*
    clamdscan --fdpass /var/zendto/*
    exit
What happened? Did the virus scans both complete successfully?

If not, and you're running CentOS/RedHat 7, try this and then give the above another try:
    groupmems --group virusgroup --add apache
    systemctl restart httpd

I added that extra groupmems command to the Installer a day or two ago when I discovered that RedHat/CentOS had changed their group membership rules in an update.

Any improvement?

Cheers,
Jules.

P.S. Otherwise, if you can give me remote ssh access I can login myself and take a look for you. I would be interested to see what it is, if it's not any of the above.

My Installer can be run in stages, and those stages can be run independently.
So you might want to download the Installer, unpack it and wander into it. In what will obviously be the right sub-dir for your OS, you will see the numbered scripts.
# cd install.ZendTo/CentOS-RedHat/

# ls

1-devtools.sh 3-clamav.sh 5-httpd-php.sh 7-zendto.sh CentOS6 RHEL7

2-php.sh 4-firewall.sh 6-email.sh 8-selinux.sh RHEL5

#

If your web server is already working nicely, then you can probably skip stage 1 (though it won't do any harm).
If you haven't installed PHP 7.2 along with things like the sodium extension, then run stage 2 which installs PHP. (Grab a backup copy of your ZendTo installation first, as it may have to remove the *whole* of PHP first which can also remove ZendTo and other PHP applications in the process, before it can install the correct version).
Stages 3 and 5 shouldn't do any damage, but will add any new settings they need for PHP and so on.
Stage 7 does the actual ZendTo installation itself, which it will do as an upgrade if it finds a zendto RPM already installed. Well worth running.
Stage 8 is only relevant if you are using SELinux, and won't do anything if you're not.
Since version 4, ZendTo no longer needs any form of custom-built PHP or anything like that. So there's no recompiling to be done.
Then if you have a previous preferences.php and/or zendto.conf, you need to use
/opt/zendto/bin/upgrade_preferences_php
and
/opt/zendto/bin/upgrade_zendto_conf
to upgrade those files.
Also, if you have done an RPM upgrade from ZendTo 4, you probably have a whole stack of *.rpmnew files in /opt/zendto/templates. You want to move each of those into place so they replace your old *.tpl files.
As I said, it really is faster/easier/better to build v5 from scratch, its requirements are so different from v4.
Hope that helps,
Jules.

None of that helps. I'm building a new system. This is a production system. I never had problems in the past with upgrading so I went ahead and did it. Bad move. Unless anyone has any other ideas, I will just keep working on setting up the new system. I have to get something running again for my users.

If you are using SELinux (most likely if you are using CentOS or RedHat), then I would also advise
restorecon -FRv /opt/zendto /var/zendto

to reset all the SELinux attributes to the values configured by my Installer.
Also, if you think it might be an SELinux problem, you can switch it into "permissive" mode by
setenforce permissive

systemctl restart httpd

systemctl restart clamd at scan

To switch it back to "enforcing", you then do
setenforce enforcing

systemctl restart httpd

systemctl restart clamd at scan

Cheers,
Jules.

I’ve seen that message as well. Check the file permissions on the /opt/zendto directories. Seems like I needed to make them writeable by the apache user, but I could be mistaken.

Going back through the mailing list archives, I see that I am having exactly the same problem as Kevin O'Connor in this thread: http://jul.es/pipermail/zendto/2018-June/003208.html<https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fjul.es%2Fpipermail%2Fzendto%2F2018-June%2F003208.html&data=01%7C01%7CJules%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7Ca244c38af7594fe02f4008d63a8489e3%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C1&sdata=%2FMQVOSO5ZjLwkrQ991eChCvoSfFOLwm3yUcnFSzoRc0%3D&reserved=0>
Files are uploaded, but I get that error message and the email is not sent.
There is no stated resolution in that thread. Any suggestions or do I have to rebuild a brand new Zend.To server?
Zend.To has been fairly solid for me...a bit of a pain to find this upgrade to be so fragile.

Just upgraded my Zend.To installation from 4.x to 5.15-1. Everything appeared to go ok. But when I click drop-off files, I get an error that states: "Sorry, I failed to drop-off your files! Note that you cannot drop-off directories, only files." I'm not dropping off a directory, just a single file. I tried a couple different file types - same error each time. Any suggestions for fixing this? Thanks!
