Hello, We are having some troubles with freshclam. Following a server crash, we reinstalled ClamAV (on a Gentoo box). Seems to work properly, but freshclam has bee spitting the same error ever since (see below).
Mirrors are db.fr.clamav.net, db.de.clamav.net and database.clamav.net (in this order). What we do not understand is - why requesting daily-21972.diff - when the last version from the DNS query is 23067 - and, of course, where does daily-21972 come from ? $ freshclam -v Current working dir is /var/lib/clamav Max retries == 2 ClamAV update process started at Wed Feb 15 16:14:36 2017 Using IPv6 aware code Querying current.cvd.clamav.net TTL: 1468 Software version from DNS: 0.99.2 main.cvd version from DNS: 57 main.cvd is up to date (version: 57, sigs: 4218790, f-level: 60, builder: amishhammer) daily.cvd version from DNS: 23067 Retrieving http://db.fr.clamav.net/daily-21972.cdiff Trying to download http://db.fr.clamav.net/daily-21972.cdiff nonblock_recv: recv timing out (30 secs) WARNING: getfile: Error while reading database from db.fr.clamav.net: Operation now in progress WARNING: getpatch: Can't download daily-21972.cdiff from db.fr.clamav.net Querying daily.21972.82.0.0.C0A85302.ping.clamav.net Retrieving http://db.fr.clamav.net/daily-21972.cdiff Trying to download http://db.fr.clamav.net/daily-21972.cdiff nonblock_recv: recv timing out (30 secs) WARNING: getfile: Error while reading database from db.fr.clamav.net: Operation now in progress WARNING: getpatch: Can't download daily-21972.cdiff from db.fr.clamav.net Querying daily.21972.82.0.0.C0A85302.ping.clamav.net WARNING: Incremental update failed, trying to download daily.cvd Whitelisting short-term blacklisted mirrors Retrieving http://db.fr.clamav.net/daily.cvd Trying to download http://db.fr.clamav.net/daily.cvd Downloading daily.cvd [100%] WARNING: Mirror 192.168.83.2 is not synchronized.
