Avira up2date error: Is there any solution?

Hi,

since yesterday my XG-Firewall cannot download the pattern files for the AVIRA virus scanner any more. This is what I read from 'Log Viewer' under 'View Log for Admin':

2015-12-29 11:17:30 Up2Date FAILED - Failed to download file avira_1.00_1.0.12965_full.tar.gz.gpg 18030
2015-12-29 11:16:31 Up2Date FAILED - Failed to download file savi_1.00_1.0.8492_full.tar.gz.gpg 18030

This process repeats every 30 seconds and is wasting all of my Internet bandwidth, as the download starts, but cannot be finished successfully.

I disbled 'Auto Update' from System>Administration>Updates'. Nevertheless, the XG Firewall doesn't stop downloading these files.

Is there any solution?

Thanks for your help.

Best Regards

  • In my case /etc/hosts was linked to /tmp/hosts. And /tmp/hosts was linked to /cfs/hosts. /cfs/hosts is readonly.

    So I renamed /tmp/hosts to /tmp/hosts.org (mv /tmp/hosts /tmp/hosts.org). Then I created a new hosts file in /tmp using vi with entries:
    127.0.0.1 localhost
    127.0.0.1 d30ncyzaneb4q0.cloudfront.net
    Hope this helps.

    Best Regards.
