ClamAV update process started at Thu Aug 12 17:36:03 2021
daily database available for update (local version: 26231, remote version: 26261)
Current database is 30 versions behind.
Downloading database patch # 26232...
ERROR: cdiff_apply: lseek(desc, -350, SEEK_END) failed
ERROR: downloadPatch: Can't apply patch
Received an older daily CVD than was advertised. We'll retry so the incremental update will ensure we're up-to-date.

If I try it again, the same process and errors occur. Any ideas on how to get the latest database?

Sure. Delete everything in the ClamWin DB folder and then do a manual update. You might copy the DB files to somewhere else on your computer before you delete--just in case, but this works every time for me.
