Dr Web running ... valid license key file was not specified

thanks a lot..
it's seems to be running now, but I noticed a request for a valid licence key file to be given in /opt/drweb/drweb32.key ... I suppose it's not my Plesk licence key...
is it included in the package or should I buy a licence from DrWeb ?

I'm not sure, but seems you can buy it from Parallels. I can suggest you contact your sales representative regarding this question.
 
Hi Igor,

According to the license I get (Powerpack) drweb is supposed to be included. Therefore, how can I get a valid license file for it ? or should I say, why does it ask for one ?
 
Sorry, but I'm not familiar with license questions. I recommend you contact your sales representative with all licenses and money related questions. It will be much more effectively.
 
IgorG,
I think my permissions are slightly different:

Because we had updated openssl, we had to follow the Plesk fix at http://kb.odin.com/en/8338 if that gives any clue.

Can anyone help me get this back working? Many thanks in advance.

EDIT. I changed the permissions but still no joy in getting Dr Web started.

Try to reset default permissions for all files from drweb packages with --setugids and --setperms rpm options.
 
THANK YOU. Forgive my ignorance, IgorG, but can you give me the full command to run from shell to do this? Are you suggesting something like
chown -r root:drweb /var/drweb/run --setugids

I think that could be wrong and would like your guidance.

many thanks in advance
 
First of all fins all drweb related packages with

rpm -qa | grep drweb

For example:

# rpm -qa | grep drweb
drweb-updater-5.0.1-0plesk
drweb-common-5.0.1-0plesk
drweb-bases-5.0.1-0
drweb-base-5.0.1-0
drweb-daemon-5.0.1-0plesk
psa-drweb-configurator-9.5.2-cos5.build95100504.12

Then update defaule permissions for each package with:

# rpm --setugids drweb-updater
# rpm --setperms drweb-updater
.....
 
Thank you IgorG,
That was very clear. One error as follows with drweb-bases. Does that give any clue as to why we cannot start DrWeb? What should we do next?

Try to remove DrWeb completely with

# rpm -e drweb-updater drweb-common drweb-bases drweb-base drweb-daemon psa-drweb-configurator

and then install it back with autoinstaller (/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/autoinstaller)
 
[root@plesk2 ~]# rpm -e drweb-updater drweb-common drweb-bases drweb-base drweb-daemon psa-drweb-configurator

[root@plesk2 ~]#

If I run the autoinstaller, it looks like it is about to re-install the whole of Plesk. Is that the case, because I just want to install the Dr Web and for now leave Plesk on 9.2.3. I will upgrade Plesk when I'm really happy that Plesk 9.5 is compatible with ASL and I think there are still issues being caused with it. I just got warried with:
Welcome to the Parallels Installation and Upgrade Wizard!
===============================================================================

This wizard will guide you through the installation or upgrade process. Before
installing or upgrading Parallels products, be sure to back up your data.
 
I did uninstall Dr Web with
# rpm -e drweb-updater drweb-common drweb-bases drweb-base drweb-daemon psa-drweb-configurator

but when I run the autoinstaller, can you confirm that I am not in fact doing a complete Plesk install & update. I want to leave all clients/domains etc. and the current Plesk version as it is for now. I did put in a submission but it appears that this has not yet been moderated by Plesk administrators.

Also, since doing that, I am now not convinced that outgoing emails are being sent.

Just done a test to a hotmail test account and got:

HELP!! Having deleted DrWeb, is nothing going out at all????
 
Hi, I have the same Issue. Ive tried this:

- /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/drwebmng --start

Results in:

- /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/drwebmng[28406]: Unable to start drweb antivirus daemon

If i try to start it in the plesk UI it gives this error:

- Unable to make action: Unable to manage service by drwebmng: /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/drwebmng[28663]: Unable to start drweb antivirus daemon
('--start', 'drweb')

Is there any solution?
