hello everyone

I get an error when I want to update the clamav database. When I access the update address via the internet browser, I encounter the cloudflare control. After passing the check (verify that you are not a robot), I can download the relevant update to my computer. pmg cannot download this update itself. What can I do about this? As a workaround for now, I download the update via the browser, connect to the server with the winSCP application and manually install it in the /var/lib/clamav/ folder.

I am a licensed Kaspersky Security for Linux owner. Can I add it to proxmox?

thank you

the issue in the logs points to a not working DNS setup:
WARNING: Download failed (6) WARNING: Message: Couldn't resolve host name

on a hunch - if apparmor is installed - try removing it...
 
I updated it manually now. I will try it when the new update comes out.

after removing apparmor you should reboot the node

if this also does not help - check the DNS settings...:
* whats in /etc/resolv.conf
* can you ping 8.8.8.8
* can you ping google.com
* can you ping database.clamav.net

I removed the apparmor. I can ping 8.8.8.8 google.com and database.clamav.net. As of now, I have solved my problem as follows. First I removed apparmor with autoremove. Then I reinstalled apparmor. I restarted the server. I removed it again with sudo apt autoremove apparmor. I can get the update now.

Thank you. You can solve it.
