Clamscan: cannot parse config file

Error message from clamdscan: cannot parse config file: Indeed, config file /etc/clamd.conf was not on the system. Turns out I was missing clamav-server, searched rpm, installed and everything worked fine. Clamav rpms were in development repository so enabled dev repos with –enablerepo=development:

• yum –enablerepo=development install clamav-server
•  yum –enablerepo=development update clamav-data

still some problem with freshclam updating ‘wrong’ directory. Changed freshclam to update to /var/clamav -> no, that’s not the solution. Still I guess the clamd.conf is not pointing to the proper directory. Strange, when running clamscan with –debug, all the directory settings seem to be proper. On my Centos Servers, everything works like a charm OOTB.
