Dear All,

How do I update my ClamAV database? I can provide the following details
regarding my problem:
1. I run ClamAV 0.99.2/24010;
2. After starting clamscan, I get "The virus database is older than 7 days!
Please update it as soon as possible."
3. Ran "sudo /etc/init.d/clamav-freshclam stop; sudo freshclam -v to
manually update the ClamAV database, however;
4. The following error keeps repeating:

Retrieving http://db.local.clamav.net/daily-24011.cdiff
Ignoring mirror 193.92.150.194 (due to previous errors)
Ignoring mirror 193.92.150.194 (due to previous errors)
WARNING: getpatch: Can't download daily-24011.cdiff from db.local.clamav.net
...
Giving up on database.clamav.net...

5. So I restarted the ClamAV daemon:
user at virus:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/clamav-freshclam start
[ ok ] Starting clamav-freshclam (via systemctl): clamav-freshclam.service.

After reading the documentation (https://www.clamav.net/documents/) and the
Archives and finding no solution, I decided to ask the community.
Please find attached the full Clamscan error log and my trial to update the
database manually. Please find the log output below (between #START and
#END). Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
George
