Should I change var/lib/clamav folder chmod to make it possible?

no, you should not run freshclam manually and let the system cron jobs do
that instead.

under ubuntu, you should run "chown -R clamav: /var/lib/clamav"

I handled to download daily.cvd <https://database.clamav.net/daily.cvd>' in
/tmp. What can I do with this file now? Sorry for stupid questions. I'm not
advanced Linux user.

you should not run freshclam under root user. You should keep it for
freshclam daemon. This way you can prevent the aemon from running properly,
because of permission problems.

try running 'https://database.clamav.net/daily.cvd' in /tmp
to see if it's accessible for you.
