Trying to set up a proxy filtering server using pure, clean install of etch, and I've found that dansguardian will only start if I turn off the antivirus feature in dansguardian.conf. I'm not an expert at this setup, though I have successfully set it up on Ubuntu and Sarge machines using the same recipe.

My setup is squid + dansguardian + clamav. I've tried updating clamav out of debian-volatile but it does the same. It gives no errors, either at the terminal or in any log file I can find. When I try to restart the init script, it just sits there for a minute or so then silently times out. There are no dansguardian processes running after that.

But if I turn of av scanning, all is well (apart from no virus scanning).

Anyone successfully set this up? I've googled every which way, but I appear to be the "only one having this problem"(TM) (on multiple machines, I might add).
