I have just installed (or actually should probably say I am ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL) OpenVAS 8 on CentOS7.
I did the install and when I run the openvas-check-setup I am getting: ERROR: redis-server is not running or not listening on socket: /var/lib/redis/redis.sock FIX: You should start the redis-server or configure it to listen on socket: /var/lib/redis/redis.sock Before going further - I am not good at Linux, so will please give me exact commands and paths, etc. I have searched for the fix before posting this. I found different answers: One answer: Edit /etc/redis.conf and add lines: Unixsocket /var/lib/redis/redis.sock Port 0 Timeout 0 Another answer: port 0 # prevent redis from listening on a TCP socket unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock unixsocketperm 700 timeout 0 Another answer: unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock unixsocketperm 755 I have tried a couple of different iterations of the above suggestions, and keep getting the error. My /etc/redis.conf currently has these lines at the very bottom: Aof-rewrite-incremental -fsync yes (this line was in there before I edited it) Unixsocket /var/lib/redis/redis.sock Port 0 #prevent redis from listening on a TCP socket Unixsocketperm 700 Timeout 0 Also, it could be that the redis-server is not started after I made those changes. I don't know how to start it (I searched that also, but didn't find anything. Remember, I am a very novice Linux user, so please tell me EXACTLY how to start it in CentOS.)
