Error message while trying to run Clam AV

#1 Post by Aspen2 » Sat Jul 24, 2010 12:38 pm

:?: Hi, I'm using UBCD v5.0.2 and am currently in the Parted Magic application trying to run Clam AV antivirus tool on one of my files, but I'm getting the following error message:
Welcome - Parted Magic (Linux 2.6.32.11-pmagic)
Most of the filesystem tools and partition programs featured by Parted Magic
include man pages. To read a manual page, simply type man and
the name of the tool. (Examples: 'man ntfsprogs' or 'man fdisk')

root@PartedMagic:/media/sda1/LOTTOWIN# clamscan
LibClamAV Error: Can't load /var/lib/clamav/daily.cvd: Can't verify database integrity

I also tried this command at the run command prompt, it didn't work.l couldn't download ClamaAV definitions, got an error. I'm new to all this so could someone please help me out, tell me what I'm doing wrong, and what's the best way to accomplish this task. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
