ClamAV path missing/not detected. No option to provide path to Clamav

Im pretty new to mahara but it seems you just have to edit your config.php file and add :
$cfg->pathtoclam = 'YOUR_PATH_TO_CLAMSCAN';

Hi Sijo,

lexsimon is correct, due to a security bug, the admin interface to edit the pathtoclam was removed. You now have to do it via the config.php file.

I will keep this bug open so that we can show the admin a warning when they enable the scanning.

Cheers,

Hugh

I've targeted this to the manual too, so that appropriate notes can be made on the following page to explain what needs to happen.

http://manual.mahara.org/en/1.6/administration/config_site.html?highlight=clam

Thanks Lexsimon, that solved the problem.

Also thanks to Hugh for the insight. It would be nice to include an additional small note in that info icon popup next to the 'enable virus scanning'. Or may be an additional note with the current error text, when saved (on the setting page).

Yes Melissa, I checked the manual and didn't see a mention about it, so created the bug, it would be helpful to have it in the manual. Thanks.

Just had a forum post about this today: https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=5584

Okay, I've made it so the web interface tells you to set it in config.php, and shows you the current value: https://reviews.mahara.org/2380
