$this->writeHandle = ($avHost && $avPort) ? @fsockopen($avHost, $avPort) : false; if (!$this->getWriteHandle()) { throw new \RuntimeException('The clamav module is not configured for daemon mode.');

So Basically what is happening is that because you are running the clamav as a separate container, your nextcloud is unable to communicate to the clamav container.

Setting the files_antivirus in daemon mode and correct name or ip and port for the docker clamav container should work. Run a 'docker exec -it nextcloud-containername bash', do a curl or ping for the clamav container see if it is all ok.

I've had this error when my clamav container has run out of memory and refused connection to the next cloud container

Hope this helps?

This didn't work for me. I too have clamav running in a separate container (behind a Kubernetes Service), resolvable as clamav.clamav on port 3310. I can resolve that address from my NextCloud instance, and if I install clamdscan and configure /etc/clamav/clamd.conf I can successfully scan files e.g., clamdscan /var/www/html/index.html completes successfully.

But I still get the same exception as the OP. Basically the Antivirus app is useless for me right now.

I had the same issue here, installed, configured (as daemon on another host, correct port), saved. Uploaded some files, a lot of exception like these.

I went to the config and SAVED CONFIG AGAIN (no changes).

Test uploading files again, no more exception and i can see that clamd is scanning (CPU very high on the clamd host).
