I am having issues trying to update my AV definitions. (running 0.88.7)
Whenever I run freshclam I get the following output (the IP listed will
vary according to the DNS return)
ERROR: Error while reading database from db.us.clamav.net
ERROR: Can't download main.cvd from db.us.clamav.net (IP: 209.59.139.38)
repeats for Max retries, followed by
ERROR: Error while reading database from database.clamav.net
ERROR: Can't download main.cvd from database.clamav.net (IP: 63.166.28.8)
ERROR: Update failed. Your network may be down or none of the mirrors listed in
freshclam.conf is working.
I haven't changed my config at all, so I am not sure what has happened
(and I get the same results on all 3 of my mail servers so I tend to
think something outside my control has changed).
Here are the relevant parts of freshclam.conf (at least I think all of
the relevant portions)
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
# You can change the default database directory here.
DatabaseDirectory /usr/local/share/clamav
# Path to the config file (make sure it has proper permissions)

# By default when freshclam is started by root it drops privileges and
# switches to the "clamav" user. You can change this behaviour here.

# The main database mirror is database.clamav.net (this is a round-robin

# SHOULD NOT change it.
