Cody, it looks like you’re running ClamAV 0.101.2. That version is too old. If you upgrade to 0.103.4, you should be able to start downloading the db files again.

What kind of system are you on? Is ClamAV prepackaged for you or did you build from source?

its prepackaged on a mailcleaner appliance, not using any standard locations for the binaries or configs and no updates available from them, an out of date database would have been better than a totally broken AV, which is where im stuck now, its frustrating that we're blaming network connectivity instead of that its too old, meaning that its not a recommendtation to upgrade but a requirement

101 should be fine. Try deleting your mirrors.dat file and see what happens?

Hi there,

You could at least have subscribed to the announcements list. This is
from two months ago and is especially relevant to you:

https://blog.clamav.net/2021/09/changes-to-clamav-end-of-life-policy.html

See also

https://blog.clamav.net/2020/07/freshclam-cdiffs-effect-on-bandwidth.html

https://blog.clamav.net/2021/11/clamav-01034-and-01041-patch-releases.html

If you'd read these you'd have been warned well in advance and there'd
have been no need to grumble on this list that something which you get
for free (and which is apparently rather important to you) has stopped
working because you didn't bother to maintain it properly.

Your interpretation of

>>> WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!
>>> WARNING: Local version: 0.101.2 Recommended version: 0.103.4
>>> DON'T PANIC! Read https://www.clamav.net/documents/upgrading-clamav

differs from mine.

Please also look at

https://www.debian.org/News/2020/20200709

which tells you that long-term support for Debian 8 (Jessie) ended
more than a year ago. There is little excuse for running Debian 8
sixteen months after its end of life. If you absolutely must run it,
then at least have the good grace to understand the implications and
for heaven's sake take this stuff seriously. If you don't, you're a
problem for the rest of us just waiting to happen.

I have seen something similar on an older instance of clamav, where the
database was seriously out-of date. The problem was that the download of
new databases took too long. It worked, but was slow, and freshclam
timed out before finishing the download and started over again. I think
I had to increase "ReceiveTimeout 30" in freshclam.conf.
