Problem with autoupdate.f-prot

[Paul Welsh]

I'm using Julian's f-prot autoupdate script:

#   $Id: autoupdate,v 1.3.2.5 2002/07/15 00:47:26 nwp Exp $

and today I got the following error in my logs:

FTP address for retrieving files is ftp://eu-1.updates.f-prot.com/pub/
F-Prot signature file update script
There is a new version of SIGN.DEF, starting download.
Download completed.
Updated SIGN.DEF.
There is a new version of SIGN2.DEF, starting download.
Updated SIGN2.DEF.
There is a new version of MACRO.DEF, starting download.

Could not find correct version of MACRO.DEF, exiting., Bad file descriptor
at /etc/cron.daily/autoupdate.f-prot line 294, <TEMPFILE> chunk 4.

I ran the script again from the command line and no error messages -
everything was up to date apparently.

I'm on MailScanner 3.22 with F-Prot 3.12a.
