Re: [Exim] Exiscan and Clam Antivirus (SOLVED)

I went as far as using this:

exiscan_scanner_path = /usr/local/exim-scan/bin/clamscan.sh


where clamscan.sh was just this:

#!/bin/sh
echo FOUND



Once again running in the foreground worked (rejected every mail of
course) but not in the background. The problem is with this:


exiscan: calling scanner as '/usr/local/exim-scan/bin/clamscan.sh
/var/spool/exim-scan/scan/17FHuo-0005WQ-00 2>&1 >
/var/spool/exim-scan/scan/17FHuo-0005WQ-00/17FHuo-0005WQ-00-scanner_output'


The 2>&1 is in the wrong spot. It should read:

exiscan: calling scanner as '/usr/local/exim-scan/bin/clamscan.sh
/var/spool/exim-scan/scan/17FI4m-0006zX-00 >
/var/spool/exim-scan/scan/17FI4m-0006zX-00/17FI4m-0006zX-00-scanner_output
2>&1'



So I changed line 813 of the patch from:


sprintf(miscfilepath,"%s 2>&1 >
%s/%s-scanner_output",miscfilepath,unpackdir,id);


to:

sprintf(miscfilepath,"%s > %s/%s-scanner_output
2>&1",miscfilepath,unpackdir,id);



Now it works in the background as well. Any reason why the 2>&1 is where
it is?
