Thank you; the file was in /tmp/... and I removed it. (the process was already 
gone)
It's behaving correctly now.

Thanks!
Barry

Subject: Re: [Openvas-discuss] 'stuck' NVT update

Hello Barry,

First, if the original openvas-nvt-sync is still running, you should terminate 
it.

If it's "stuck" after this, look in the temporary files directory for a 
subdirectory openvas-feed-sync. This should contain some nested directories 
that reflect the path to the sync script.
For example if the openvas-nvt-sync is installed in /openvas/sbin/ and the temp 
directory is /tmp you should find the directory 
/tmp/openvas-feed-sync/openvas/sbin

If it contains a file openvas-nvt-sync with a timestamp and a username in it, 
deleting it should allow you to start the sync from the GSA interface (and the 
OMP sync_feed command) again.

Best regards

Timo
