Hi Elia, I would need to see the log messages from your subsequent updates to be sure what's going wrong. The logs you shared in your initial email show a bug but subsequent freshclam runs _should_ work. If you want, the verbose log may reveal something.
Like Joel suggested, it may be the ReceiveTimeout issue discussed here: https://blog.clamav.net/2021/07/psa-freshclam-database-download-issue.html Regardless, I think that deleting your daily.cld database (/var/lib/clamav/daily.cld) and trying again should get you back in business. Sorry about the trouble.

Basically when running freshclam I get the following errors: ClamAV update process started at Wed Jul 28 14:30:20 2021 daily database available for update (local version: 26209, remote version: 26246) Downloaded 22 patches for daily, which is fewer than the 37 expected patches. We'll settle for this partial-update, at least for now. ERROR: cdiff_apply: lseek(desc, -350, SEEK_END) failed ERROR: downloadPatch: Can't apply patch Testing database: '/var/lib/clamav/tmp.0c60a53c3f/clamav-c22814890a9b587d8060b5d43ce20d40.tmp-daily.cld' ...

I tried running freshclam several times but same thing happens over and over again. Clamav version is 0.103.3 and daily db version is 26231 (instead of 26246). I saw an email on this topic in your mail archive (https://lists.clamav.net/pipermail/clamav-users/2021-July/011508.html<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/lists.clamav.net/pipermail/clamav-users/2021-July/011508.html__;!!MfzFaTml5A!wRTy_q1wySY-gPyDzwwYOQdV2UcN6jR4FGNN7xYXaDATx_zbNMz9waHWWle-9o8rjHk$>), but I do not see any resolution of the problem. Could you give an update on what is going on and when is this problem going to be resolved? Thank you! Best Regards, Elia Asenova
