I already did a lot of research with google. What I have running: ClamAV 0.99.2/22884/Fri Jan 13 09:07:47 2017 Not running in daemon mode. Executing freshclam cron controlled. With each "--on-error-execute" a scripts deletes the mirrors.dat This is the content of freshclam.conf: DatabaseDirectory /var/clamav UpdateLogFile /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log LogSyslog yes LogTime yes LogVerbose no Debug no PidFile /var/run/freshclam.pid DatabaseOwner clamav DatabaseMirror db.de.clamav.net DatabaseMirror db.local.clamav.net DatabaseMirror database.clamav.net MaxAttempts 8 ConnectTimeout 60 ReceiveTimeout 60 Checks 12 Output from an update try, after resetting virus definitions files and also deleting mirros file: Jan 8 13:07:56 System freshclam[5948]: ClamAV update process started at Sun Jan 8 13:07:56 2017 Jan 8 13:07:56 System freshclam[5948]: Connecting via 10.93.220.10 Jan 8 13:07:56 System freshclam[5948]: main.cvd is up to date (version: 57, sigs: 4218790, f-level: 60, builder: amishhammer) Jan 8 13:07:56 System freshclam[5948]: Connecting via 10.93.220.10 Jan 8 13:07:57 System freshclam[5948]: getfile: daily-22857.cdiff not found on db.de.clamav.net Jan 8 13:07:57 System freshclam[5948]: getpatch: Can't download daily-22857.cdiff from db.de.clamav.net Jan 8 13:07:57 System freshclam[5948]: getfile: daily-22857.cdiff not found on db.de.clamav.net Jan 8 13:07:57 System freshclam[5948]: getpatch: Can't download daily-22857.cdiff from db.de.clamav.net Jan 8 13:07:57 System freshclam[5948]: getfile: daily-22857.cdiff not found on db.de.clamav.net Jan 8 13:07:57 System freshclam[5948]: getpatch: Can't download daily-22857.cdiff from db.de.clamav.net Jan 8 13:07:57 System freshclam[5948]: Incremental update failed, trying to download daily.cvd Jan 8 13:08:11 System freshclam[5948]: Downloading daily.cvd [100%] Jan 8 13:08:15 System freshclam[5948]: Mirror 10.93.220.10 is not synchronized.

Jan 8 13:10:37 System freshclam[5948]: Update failed. Your network may be down or none of the mirrors listed in /etc/freshclam.conf is working. Check http://www.clamav.net/doc/mirrors-faq.html for possible reasons. This problem occurs on a particular system only. The same configuration is installed on other systems too, there I don't see the problem. Any help appreciated. Thanks!
