  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.

Question Can't create mirrors.dat in /var/lib/clamav

TRILOS new media

New Pleskian
Cron <root@$> /usr/share/clamav/freshclam-sleep > /dev/null
notifies:
ERROR: Can't create mirrors.dat in /var/lib/clamav
ERROR: Failed to save mirrors.dat!
ERROR: initialize: libfreshclam init failed.
ERROR: Initialization error!

and
$/usr/bin/freshclam --debug
shows:
ERROR: Can't create mirrors.dat in /var/lib/clamav
Hint: The database directory must be writable for UID 993 or GID 995
ERROR: Failed to save mirrors.dat!
WARNING: Failed to create a new mirrors.dat!
ERROR: initialize: libfreshclam init failed.
ERROR: Initialization error!

but
#ls -lan
clears up:
drwxr-xr-x 3 993 995 4096 Apr 25 04:48 clamav

Anyway, only Plesk Premium Antivirus is used on that server (Plesk Onyx Version 17.8.11 Update #95) and clamav should not even be installed or I don´t know which component uses clamav.
Any ideas on how to get rid of this or whether it´s wise remove clamav?
 
You could try to use strace to get a better idea of what happens there and why the syscall fails.
