Firstly, I'd update the script to Bill's script here, which has a load more
features etc.

However, if you have a test file to scan, try something like this...
what's the output of doing this
clamscan --database=scam.ndb tesfile.txt
Does the database fail then?
Now do...
clamscan tesfile.txt
Does the database fail then?
The script you current use, loads ALL the databases available, so you
might be running out of resources and so, the database is seemingly
failing,
changing script, will enable you to tweak your setup.
