I got bash script from internet for for Running the Clamav Antivirus in Demon mode.

But am getting the below error.

Can't open /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

I checked /etc/rc.d/init.d/ directory there is no file named functions.

Mine is Ubuntu 12.04

My script is 

# Source function library.
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

# Source networking configuration.
. /etc/sysconfig/network

[ -x /usr/local/sbin/clamd ] || exit 0

.....

Any idea?

The functions file is /lib/lsb/init-functions, but see my answer below. – Frantique Sep 21 '12 at 12:42

Install clamav using apt:
sudo apt-get install clamav*, and you will not have these problems anymore. What you have downloaded doesn't seem to be suitable for Ubuntu 12.04.

Yes. I have downloaded the clamav and used make install.What is the correct way to uninstall clamav?. Can I use apt-get remove clamav? – soundar Sep 21 '12 at 12:53
No, make uninstall from the directory from where you have installed it. – Frantique Sep 21 '12 at 12:54
