Please leave only unixsocket /var/lib/redis/redis.sock and remove unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock line and then systemctl restart reds.service. you should also disable selinux using command setenforce 0 and then permanently disable it in file /etc/sysconfig/selinux Eero 2015-09-18 17:37 GMT+03:00 Randy Dover <[email protected]>: Eero, Thanks for the reply, I think I got the service enabled and started (key on *think* - I didn't get errors when I ran the commands) I am still getting the error: redis-server is not running or not listening on socket: /var/lib/redis/redis.sock The last lines of redis.conf file (located in /etc/redis.conf) are: unixsocket /var/lib/redis/redis.sock (I would think this is correct, given the message above) port 0 #prevent redis from listening on a TCP socket unixsocketperm 700 timeout 0 unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock Am I missing something? Are the two unixsocket commands conflicting? I have tried it both ways Randy Dover From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Eero Volotinen Sent: Friday, September 18, 2015 10:05 AM To: Randy Dover <[email protected]> Cc: openvas-discuss <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Openvas-discuss] OpenVas install on CentOS 7 - redis-server Hi, I usually don't provide step by step instructions.. but echo "unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock" >> /etc/redis.conf means that you need to add one line to /etc/redis.conf saying 'unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock' systemctl works only on root account. ask help from your local linux support, in case of problems. Eero 2015-09-18 16:56 GMT+03:00 Randy Dover <[email protected]>: Eero, I’m a little confused over your reply. (Please forgive this Linux newbie!) Echo? In dos, that just means to show the line… Do I need to edit the redis.conf file? When I type the system enable command I get an “Access denied”, I am signed on as admin (*Should* be root level) after getting that message, I typed “su”, which should have forced it into privilege, even though it should have been already.

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.)
