15.6. Scanner and Daemon: exit
codes
The list of exit codes that can be returned by the
program. Example of using these codes in a script file.
If you start Scanner or Daemon from a script file, you may analyze its exit
code.
After the task is finished, the program returns one of the following values
(exit codes) in the low half-byte:
0
– no viruses detected;
1
– scanning was interrupted;
2
– objects containing a modified or damaged virus were detected;
3
– suspicious objects were detected;
4
– one or more viruses were detected;
5
– all infected objects were disinfected;
6
– infected objects were deleted;
7
– the
kavscanner
or
kavdaemon
file is corrupted;
8
– files are corrupted or an
I/O error has occurred
.
In the high half-byte, the program returns the following advanced codes:
8
– virus-definition databases are corrupted;
4
– virus-definition databases are not detected;
1
– key files are not loaded or the license is expired.
!"
The advanced code
1
can also be returned at the user prompt.
These codes are assigned only if a program error has occurred.
For example, a script file may contain the following strings:
./kavscanner -o{/home/Vir1}
exitCode=$?
lo=$[$exitcode%16]
