Ok, I installed ClamAV on Debian Jessie using the command:
sudo apt-get install clamav clamav-daemon
Next I tried to update the database:
sudo freshclam
The following error messages came up:
ERROR: /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log is locked by another process
ERROR: Problem with internal logger
I am still unable to run /usr/bin/freshclam. This happened to me
before and then it eventually started working again for a little but
now has come back for some reason. I really want to understand and
figure this out.
Here is what I get and also nothing appears in the logs from what I can tell:

I followed this guide for how to configure permissions on Debian for Clamav.

Did I do something wrong or miss
ClamAV can't write to the logs because they don't have the permissions. You
missed this part it looks like:
*The text illustrated above must match the LocalSocket parameter you found
in clamd.conf.*
Edit amavisd.conf to match what you found in clamd.conf if it is different.

Hmmm, something is very strange here because with no changes made to
any config or permissions modified, I am now able to run 'freshclam'
with out any errors as I was having in my 1st example. All I simply
did was 'restart' the daemon running 'freshclam':
mail:/etc# /etc/init.d/clamav-freshclam
What might be happening is two different apps with two different permissions
are writing to the files. when the second app writes to the files, its
permissions keep the first app (freshclam) from writing to the logs.
