Hey Everyone,

Just to provide some corroborating evidence.... I seem to be experiencing
the same conditions as Hartmut...

Checking the log I see the exact same messages... "sqlite3_step finished
too soon" rampant throughout...

Now the odd part is it seems to be intermittent or sporatic... Sometimes
after starting the Openvassd, Openvasmd, Openvasmd, gsad.  I can run a
scan, sometimes, two, I have actually gotten to three successful scan
starts, then anything subsequent just sits in GSA with a "requested"
status...    The only way I have been able to correct this is to stop and
restart both the GSA and Manager processes...

Sometimes even a first scan won't work...   It just seems random,  it looks
like there is a socket connect to the manager, but the scan won't
initialize / start.  So GSA, unfortunately, as nice as it looks seemingly
it can't be used as a production system just yet...

Keep in mind I don't have anywhere near the savvy as the majority of people
I read messages from here on this list...

So other than manually applying the ,XXXXXXXXXX -d fix the other day
(thanks for fixing that so fast btw)...  Everything else I have is compiled
from the latest tarballs downloaded from the main site, running on Ubuntu
9.10 server x86... I haven't bothered with SVN or any incremental patches
as I am firewalled to death here, seemingly waiting on official version
releases is quicker than the change management request and paperwork to
allow my FW access...

Any other thoughts??   I remember one of the Dev's (maybe Matt Mundell??)
saying this behavior hasn't been replicated in his environment, which I
cannot comment on...  Is could this potentially a distro spe

After updating gsa and manager to trunk and restarting, the task shows a
"resume" button for the stopped task. But hitting "Start" still doe not
make the task "running" but ist still stays at "requested".

In the logs I can not find anything meaningful except of some
"sqlite3_step finished too soon" messages.
