Install ClamAV

To do this on Ubuntu, you can open a terminal and insert

sudo apt-get install clamav

and press enter.

You may also build ClamAV from sources to benefit from better scanning performance.

To update the signatures, you type

sudo freshclam

on a terminal session and press enter.

Enable ClamAV

In your Mahara you need to specify the path to your install ClamAV program in your config.php file, eg:

$cfg->pathtoclam = '/usr/bin/clamscan';

Then you need to go to Administration -> Configure site -> Security settings and turn on the Virus Checking switch and saving
