Did you read the FAQ? It states perl has to run setuid. I'm running
current CentOS and its perl-5.8.8 still has setuid capabilities. If that
isn't an option, then you'll have to do as the documentation suggests
and run a setuid "wrapper" around the perl script - in fact it's in the
./contrib dir

Low volume could be because it does what it does and there are no
outstanding bugs.

This error appears consistently as a problem for at least
the last ten years on the forums and boards in various
places. I have tried making sure that qscand is running
clamd and has ownership rights and so on. However, I think
this problem might be related to perl not running in setuid
mode. Apparently, setuid support has been discontinued in
perl.<br>
