installing Clam av on my linux - cesar94 - 10-12-2017
Hello to everybody, i'm Cesar and i installed Linux Lite 2 months ago, it's very useful for me because i migrated from windows ( from 95 to 7, i hate the news versions) decided start with this OS for start using a simple version that reminds me the xp.
Anyway, i was reading and i saw videos to install an antivirus in Linux, maybe i don't need it, i know, but i prefer be prevent for any case, so i downloaded the Clam av antivirus, i put the command "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y" everything normal at this point, but when i decide scan a directory , in my case "sudo clamscan -r /home/cesar" i get this message:

this is weird for me, so i downloaded a minor infected file,i updated the freshclam with #freshclam, and i type again "sudo clamscan -r /home/cesar/downloads"(there is the infected file)
and this message appears:
cesar@cesar-N68S3:~/Downloads/clamav-0.99.2$ sudo freshclam
ERROR: /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log is locked by another process
ERROR: Problem with internal logger (UpdateLogFile = /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log).
WHY? i don't know, and when i try again a new scan this appears:
