I have ubuntu linux havp proxy installed and working with clamav but I want to use avg dowloaded avg free 2012.
i get in the error log
--initializing avg socket scanner
avg: could not connect to scanner! scanner down?

in the havp.config file i have
#avg socket scanner
enableavg true
#avg daemon needs to run on the same server as havp (it does)
#default
avgserver 127.0.0.1
avgport 55555

Hi,
havp is not supported officially, but try to set correct avg port (by default 54322 - see key Default.tcpd.avg.ports) = avgport 54322.
Please let us know if it works.
Thanks,

ER

Works fine
