Can you tell us why you need a private mirror? That's not to say that I think you don't need one, but it isn't the place where a newcomer to ClamAV would normally start. To be clear, a private mirror will only usually be needed if you have a large number of machines in a single network, many or all of which will run ClamAV. By having a copy of the ClamAV database on each machine (and, more importantly, by keeping all these individual copies up to date) the many machines might create an unnecessarily large load - not only on your Internet connection but also on the (Cloudflare) database servers. Cloudflare might consider the load abusive, and, if it did, would respond by blocking connection attempts from your public IP address. If you're having any difficulty, and you don't actually need a private mirror, I'd recommend keeping things simpler by getting the database updates directly to the machines which are running ClamAV.
Freshclam works fine but when I try to start the clamd daemon I get this error. Any help is appreciated. systemctl status clamd@scan -l ... Process: 2030 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/clamd -c /etc/clamd.d/%i.conf (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) ...
Can I take it that this command was run on the private mirror server? On Fri, 25 Jun 2021, Lopez, Carmelo via clamav-users wrote:

Can you tell us *exactly* how you installed ClamAV (a) on your private mirror server and (b) on any other machines? -- 73, Ged.
