Unable to use ClamAV on DirectAdmin servers

Issue

• ClamAV cannot be used DirectAdmin servers without additional configuration
• DirectAdmin started to use system/repo clamav service having clamscan located in /usr/bin/clamscan, so it won't be /usr/local/bin/clamdscan anymore.

Environment

• DirectAdmin PRO pack
• Cloudlinux
• CageFS
• ClamAV

Solution

Rebuild DirectAdmin as follows:

# /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/build set clamav yes
# /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/build clamav

After that, the ClamAV option should be visible in user level to do the scan.

Note: This feature is available only in DirectAdmin licenses with a propack, lifetime licenses or dc licenses does not have that feature.

Cause

When DA starts the ClamAV service – it starts it under a user that does not have the ClamAV binaries in his cage.  DA started to use system/repo clamav service, so it won't be '/usr/local/bin/clamdscan' anymore.
The issue registered with id CAG-1276. Once it will be fixed, changes will be reflected in CloudLinux  Changelog
