Hi altogether, I installed clamav on friend´s laptop (via teamviewer because she lives far away). Her system: Linux/Lubuntu 18.04.4 LTS, 64 bit.
Alas virus-signature-update doesn´t work. After killing the freshclam-process - in order to update manually - I tried "sudo freshclam". At first it worked but after 27 MB of download it stopped: Terminal-output: Apr 15 13:47:47 margret-ThinkPad-T430s freshclam[1505]: Wed Apr 15 13:47:47 2020 -> ^Download failed (28) Wed Apr 15 13:47:47 2020 -> ^ Message: Timeout was reached Apr 15 13:47:47 margret-ThinkPad-T430s freshclam[1505]: Wed Apr 15 13:47:47 2020 -> ^getcvd: Can't download daily.cvd from https://database.clamav.net/daily.cvd Apr 15 13:47:47 margret-ThinkPad-T430s freshclam[1505]: Wed Apr 15 13:47:47 2020 -> Trying again in 5 secs... Apr 15 13:47:52 margret-ThinkPad-T430s freshclam[1505]: Wed Apr 15 13:47:52 2020 -> daily database available for download (remote version: 25782) Apr 15 13:47:56 margret-ThinkPad-T430s freshclam[1505]: Wed Apr 15 13:47:56 2020 -> Update process terminated After 5 secs it started again but with the same result. And every time it starts at 0 MB. So the update-process never ends. I´ve got no idea what can be done besides this: "For offline update, you can also directly download virus definition from database: main, daily and then put them into /var/lib/clamav (remove old files)." (see: https://askubuntu.com/questions/114000/how-to-update-clamav-definitions-database ). What´s your opinion about that? Thanks for your help in advance. Greetings.
