@Sebahat.hadzhi it seems that the problem stopped. I received the last emails regading "Dr.Web Updater" last week. Fingers crossed that it stays like this. Do you know if they changed something?
Unfortunately this didn't work. I received a new email this morning:
/etc/cron.daily/drweb-update:
ERROR: Dr.Web Updater: failed to download files !
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/drweb-update exited with return code 105
@Sebahat.hadzhi Where do you want me to replace the update.pl file?
@trialotto Thank you very much for that hint! I added the IP to my hosts file and will post an update here if the daily mail from the server has been stopped.
@Sebahat.hadzhi These are the emails from the last days:

Here's is a "drweb" grep...
Thank you @Sebahat.hadzhi. I just updated the drweb32.ini on one of my servers and set it to Debug.
I am expecting to receive another email from the server within the next days. What do you want me to share here from the log?
I also received this message from a server where I switched the execution time for the daily cronjob from 6:25 to 5:25:
/etc/cron.daily/drweb-update:
ERROR: Dr.Web Updater: failed to download files !
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/drweb-update exited with return code 103
So same result with return...
@Sebahat.hadzhi I adjusted the /etc/hosts file on several servers and switched to this IP:
195.161.158.50 update.geo.drweb.com
But this doesn't seem to help: I received this error again this morning:
/etc/cron.daily/drweb-update:
ERROR: Dr.Web Updater: failed to download files !
run-parts...
This makes totally sense!
Since the solution mentioned from @Sebahat.hadzhi also recommends to use a different IP address for update.geo.drweb.com, this shouldn't be solved manually from administrators.
The server under
81.176.67.172 update.geo.drweb.com
should balance load to the mentioned...
@Sebahat.hadzhi I think the connectivity issue would also be visible in the manual updating process. But this runs through everything very fast. The entire update process just needs a couple of seconds. So I think this is not a connectivity issue.
@Sebahat.hadzhi any updates from Plesk support team on this topic? I am receiving those mails every day for a lot of servers. It gets kind of annoying now since there is no fix for this.
I tried the mentioned workaround yesterday. I added
81.176.67.172 update.geo.drweb.com
to the hosts file and increased the timeout value to 360. This morning I received this message again:
/etc/cron.daily/drweb-update:
ERROR: Dr.Web Updater: failed to download files !
run-parts...
