You need to check that redis-server is listening /tmp/redis.sock try following command:
check redis configuration: grep 'unixsock' /etc/redis.conf if output does now contain unixsock /tmp/redis.sock line, tjen run following command sed -i "s#^\# unixsocket .*#unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock#g" /etc/redis.conf or manually edit unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock into config file. then restart redis and enable it systemctl restart redis.service systemctl enable redis.service and then check status with openvas-check-setup ..
