Running freshclam error - any ideas?

Hi
I get this error when trying to run freshclam, I have corrected the permissions as suggested in other posts.
ERROR: Can't open /var/log/freshclam.log in append mode (check permissions!).
ERROR: Problem with internal logger.
Any ideas please?

Ahh. So you are running freshclam manually then. Now that explains everything.
1. freshclam only updates ClamAV's virus database, not the application itself.
2. freshclam is run automatically based on the update settings in Server Admin (once a day is enough)
3. to run freshclam manually (which is pointless) you need to become user clamav first, this is why you got permission errors.
BuildSmart will update your system to the latest ClamAV version (and lots more). However, you seem to be very unexperienced with unix (no offense meant) and ClamAV is only x.xx.1 version behind, so I would leave things as they are for now.

    when I try to export a photo to my desktop I get the followiing error message "Export Versions Complete with Errors" any ideas why?

    Have you tried to export different images as a test to see if it is related to the one you are getting the error on? Also try to export to a different folder other then the Desktop, again to see if the problem is connected to that folder.
    Another thing to do is run the Aperture Library First Aid on the library. Hold the option and command keys down while you start Aperture. First run the Permission Repair and see if that helps. If not quit Aperture and restart and run the Library Repair and try.
    Post back if you still have problems

  • I cant get into itunes producer keep getting an error my username and password is incorrect. i have made a new one all good still same error any ideas?

    I cant get into itunes producer keep getting an error my username and password is incorrect. i have made a new one all good still same error any ideas?

    I'm having a very similar problem.
    I'm based in the U.K. and am trying to publish an iBook through the iTunes bookstore. I have made my book in iBooks author 2.0. My iTunes is up to date.
    When I try and publish the iBook I have passed and ticked the Pre Publish Check; and the Create Account, but when I try and download iTunes Producer through iTunes Connect I'm told "Your Apple ID does not have permission to access iTunes Content."
    When I try and re-set my iTunes Store account I'm told "The iTunes Store Account has already applied to distribute content on the iBookstore." Of course it has I just did that.
    If I try and sign in to iTunes Connect through the Publishing pane I'm told "Your ID or Password was entered incorrectly." Even though I've just used it to sign into iTunes (and here), so my password and Apple ID work fine elsewhere.
    Is my access to the iTunes Connect being delayed while my submission is processed, i.e. the processing of my tax and account details? Or am I stuck in a loop?
    If this is still processing (I started this 20 hours ago) I assume that I have to submit the book itself when I can download iTunes Producer at a later date, as I haven't submitted the book yet?
    I emailed the problem to iTunes Store and was refered to [email protected], only for them to say they don't read or reply to emails sent to that address??????
    I'm not sure which part of the process I've reached - if any. I feel I'm in limbo. I have an iBook ready to go - but where is Apple?
    Any help would be most welcome.

    Hi eggroll77,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.

  • Error using jar, but the programme works right when i run it from any IDE

    I have a programme with 25 .java archives. Is a GUI with a main panel and a JToolBar. When i run ir from Eclipse iDE, NetBeans or in the Linux shell it works rigth. Then i try to make a .jar. In the process i haven't any error, and when the application starts either. But when i click in some of the JMenuItems, they don't work. The function of this Items are change the main panel. It's like some .class of event listeners aren't included, but i check the .jar and has the same .class archives than the compiled project.
    What can be problem?? It's very urgent, please.

  • I keep getting an error when trying to blend photos in Enfuse.  The first one was when I had auto align checked so I unchecked it but now I am getting an error when trying to run Enfuse.  Any ideas?

    Sorry for the long title.  Here are the errors I am getting.  Any ideas?

    You are selecting the images from the Previous Import collection, go to the folder where the images are contained, e.g. probably in Associate Laptop in your case because all the other entries in Folders have ? which means they aren't there.
    After going to the folder (you can also right-click on one image and select 'Go to Folder in Library' if you don't know where it is) then select the images again and LR/Enfuse will process them BUT not from the 'Previous Import' collection.

  • I keep getting error 0xE8000068 ipod error, any ideas of what i should do?

    i keep getting this error everytime i sync my ipod touch 3g to my computer. i have windows vista and i keep turning the ipod on/off, let it charge fully and used different usb ports. idk what else to do. any ideas?

    Yep, i did reinstall iTunes (I don't have any other Apple software) and I keep everything (except BIOS) updated religiously. It didn't help.
    To add to my previous post - when I was able to connect to iTunes that one time, iTunes started downloading 750 Mb update. About 20% into download, iPod disconnected and went into the same old spiral of death with  0xE8000068 error in iTunes. I kept it connected and tried to reconnect again, without success. I was afraid to close iTunes, so I waited until iTunes downloaded all of 750Mb, and voila - by morning, iPod was restored.. Albeit a little weird, it wasn't restored to factory settings, it just managed to boot correctly and now works. It seems to be missing some files (e.g. iTuneU won't show any subscriptions, but I can still listen and watch the lectures from iTunesU through "Music"->"iTunesU" menu).
    So far so good. I'll just restore it when I listen through my 6Gb of lectures and podcasts - I'm in Hawaii on vacation now, using hotel's WiFi and I don't know how kindly the hosts will look upon 6Gb download within a day, maybe they pay per gigabyte here. Besides I ain't fixing what works.

  • Flashbuilder 4 Upgrade from Flex 3 getting following errors any idea

    Hi:
      I'm getting the following 2 errors when I try to compile a swf from Flex 3 to FB4
      Any ideas and how to get around this
      1) 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type mx.core:INavigatorContent
          this is the AS call
            app.dashboardstack.selectedCild.addChild(panel);
    2) 1118: Implicit coercion of a value with static type mx.core.INavigatorContent to a possibly unrelated type
                 mx.core.Container
            var subjectObject:Container = accordion.selectedChild;
    Thanks, Mike

    You need to read this, http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/flex3and4_differences.html and a couple of other related articles in the Flex Developer Center.

  • Another -8 error, any ideas?

    My iChat has been working flawlessly for as long as i can recall until Sunday after I ran software update which included AE updates. I have a X-Modem plugged into AE basestation serving my MBP. When I try to connect with video it fails and gives the -8 error in log, it had never failed to connect prior to Sunday.
    My firewall is off and I can also connect to the appleu3 test account, the bizarre thing is after 2 days of not working it suddenly started working for a few hours now it fails again (I hadn't changed anything prior to it working)
    Any ideas what the issue may be?
    Cheers

    Yes, that's the one.
    Is there something or was there something that needed to be done to work with a Base Station and iChat ?
    I know the chap used to post here as ADSLNation and was very helpful.

After running Mac Janitor I repaired permissions with Disk Utility and there were thousands of files that needed to be re-set. After that it ran the way it should.
    I was pretty surprised because when I repair permissions on my Mac Pro tower practically nothing gets changed.
