Hello,
It is a VirtualBox VM which had 2GB of RAM. Now I changed the VM memory
to 4GB and the problem persists.
It was in fact possible that the problem was RAM-related, because just
before the crash occured I was editing the task (it is an alterable
task) to run over all the 35 IPs of my task in parallel. However, the
RAM increase didn't solve the problem.
Thanks,
João Jerónimo

Hello,
It is the second time this hapens to me. I've been using OpenVAS-8
in kali-1.1.0a.
If for some reason the scanner crashes then it doesn't work anymore!
First time this happened it was because I "killall -KILL"ed the
scanner processes, so it was my fault! Gsad still ran, but when I
tried to start a scan (any on them) the browser waited forever
with no response. I tried to do openvas-stop; openvas-start with
no success. Then uninstaled all openvas-related packages and
reinstalled them again. Then I tried to remove all .nasl updates
and downloading them again. None of these solved the problem. The
solution was to reinstall kali linux.
Today this happened again, but now it wasn't me the one who killed
the scanner processes. It looked like the X session just restarted
spontaneously while I was browsing Gsad. The symptoms are the
same, that is, if I try to (re)start any scan the browser waits
forever for server response.
I noticed that if I did openvas-stop there would still be files in
/var/run/openvas*.pid, and removed them. But after openvas-start
the problem persists. Reboot also doesn't seem to solve the problem.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
João Jerónimo
