Hi all ,
i am try to scan a zip file with the clamwin command line ,
when i do the scaning it start to scan and after 3 seconds it stops the scaning and i see it count only 1 file the scanner did not scan the files inside the zip file.
what can i do?? please help me

beast regards

See if you can scan the zip files from the GUI or the Windows explorer right context menu. If you can, then there is something wrong with your command line script.

Regards,

i scaned the same zip file with the gui and the same problem is happens,(sorry for my bad english)
and the most frastrating issue that i did not see the files that the clam command line scaner is scan i just see 0 files mayby something with my config file? or my script command?
this is my commanddd script:
clamscan.exe --scan-archive --max-recursion=7 --database="C:\Program Files\ClamWin\db" --recursive c:/test

this is what the gui show after the scan:
------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------

Your script is clamscan.exe --scan-archive --max-recursion=7 --database="C:\Program Files\ClamWin\db" --recursive c:/test . Try this: clamscan.exe --scan-archive --max-recursion=7 --database="C:\ProgramData\.ClamWin\db" --recursive c:/test . I think you have the wrong location for the database, and the dot before \clamwin\db is missing.

Regards,

it is more comftable that the db will be in the same folder that the clam installation is.. anyway this is the same.. i used the debugigng tool and see that the zip file for examle is unzipe the file .
