whenever i give "antivir --update" it starts and completes it all right, but, at the end of the download it says "error updating, please check the log file", but i cannot find any logfile in antivir directory
In my suse 8.2 system antivir log is in /var/log/antivir.log I guess that you have same problem that I had : Tue Nov 11 19:00:43 2003: Error: new updates will not work with current license Tue Nov 11 19:00:43 2003: AntiVir FAILED to update itself
The "funny" thing is that first it downloads the updates, then it says they can not be installed - instead of checking first thing; clumsy programming: ---------------- nimrodel:/usr/lib/AntiVir # antivir --update AntiVir / Linux Version 2.0.6-10 Copyright (C) 1994-2002 by H+BEDV Datentechnik GmbH.
