]# amavisd-release virus-wfzVDLDYqifA.gz

Can't connect to UNIX socket /var/spool/amavisd/amavisd.sock: No such file or directory at /usr/bin/amavisd-release line 270.

In amavisd-release $socketname is set to '/var/amavis/amavisd.sock'; by default. please fix it to the correct /var/lib/amavis/amavisd.sock

after fixing to /var/lib/amavis/amavisd.sock amavsid-release works again.

# cp /usr/sbin/amavisd /usr/sbin/amavisd.BK

# vi /usr/sbin/amavisd

870 # $unix_socketname = '/var/amavis/amavisd.sock'; # e.g. milter or release

$unix_socketname = '/var/lib/amavis/amavisd.sock';

12380 # how to test: $ socat stdio unix-connect:/var/amavis/amavisd.sock,crnl

--------

But should that not be covered by the conffile:

/etc/amavis/conf.d/25-amavis_helpers:$unix_socketname = "/var/lib/amavis/amavisd.sock";
