Avast not working

[jreidsma]

Hi,
I just put avast for linux on both of the computer in my rkhunter thread. And now the Avast won't work at all.

Whenever I try to open avast or run it is gives this pop up:
"An error occured in avast! engine: invalid argument"

So what can I do to fix this? Uninstall it then reinstall it? Would that require I send them a new email to get a new free license?

Then in the other computer avast is just gone...

Hi,
I managed to find the answer on Facebook of all places
sudo sysctl -w kernel.shmmax=128000000

It now runs perfectly on the Kororaa computer.

On the moonOS it still won't stay installed. Whenever I turn the computer off it disappears.

EDIT:
In the terminal Avast was still there. I put in "avast" and it gave me the same error as in the first post. So I reinstalled avast yet again, and put in the code above. It is working now and I have it scanning.

Once I turn it off and on again we will see if this fixed it or not.

I installed Avast on Bodhi bit now it is saying that enlightenment has failed to launcg avastgui and failed to load?
