Hi gusans,
Please keep in mind that the instructions provided in the Blog are not officially supported by Zimbra, so is always a must have a proper backup.Before launch the command that you have erros for, you need to do the next in 8.6:
cp /opt/zimbra/clamav-0.98.4/etc/clamd.conf.sample /opt/zimbra/clamav-0.98.4/etc/clamd.conf
chown zimbra:zimbra /opt/zimbra/clamav-0.98.4/etc/clamd.conf
chmod 755 /opt/zimbra/clamav-unofficial-sigs/clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh
And then follow the rest of the Blog, you will see something like this:
zimbra@zimbra-sn-u14-10:~/clamav-unofficial-sigs$ /opt/zimbra/clamav-unofficial-sigs/clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh -c /opt/zimbra/clamav-unofficial-sigs/clamav-unofficial-sigs.conf

Error adding sanesecurity on Zimbra 8.6

hi Jorge, and thanks for the quick response.
did what you sugest and it seems to work fine.
only i had to do  was edit /opt/zimbra/clamav-0.98.4/etc/clamd.conf and comment the line 'Example' like said into the file. then the download of signatures was succesful.
now i have another question. after running /opt/zimbra/clamav-unofficial-sigs/clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh -c /opt/zimbra/clamav-unofficial-sigs/clamav-unofficial-sigs.conf
to download the signatures, the script file changes to 644. is it right?
i added to my crontab this "chmod 755 /opt/zimbra/clamav-unofficial-sigs/clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh" before the update command, but i'm not sure if it's the best way.

thanks again for your help!

Hi gusans,
The best thing that you can do is create a little bash script in the path that you want (please not /tmp or other insecure folder), with:
#!/bin/bash
#
# Script for gusans
#
chmod 755 clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh /opt/zimbra/clamav-unofficial-sigs/clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh
/opt/zimbra/clamav-unofficial-sigs/clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh -c /opt/zimbra/clamav-unofficial-sigs/clamav-unofficial-sigs.conf

And then make it executable, and put this new script in the crontab.
