This is almost certainly a permissions issue. You are running the
command as some user (root ?) that is different from MailScanner's Run
As User.

What happens if you manually run

sudo -u xxx /usr/lib/MailScanner/wrapper/esets-wrapper /opt/eset/esets/sbin/

where xxx is MailScanner's Run As User? I expect that this will fail as
it does when MailScanner runs it. In particular, ensure that
MailScanner's Run As User can write to /var/log/essets.log.
