Thank you Rene Behring. I followed your advise to upgrade to version 9. I removed openvas8 first and then installed the version openvas9 Then, I did the following:
sudo openvas-nvt-sync sudo openvas-scapdata-sync sudo openvas-certdata-sync sudo service openvas-manager stop sudo service openvas-scanner stop sudo openvassd sudo openvasmd --migrate (output => md main: DEBUG:19215:2016-02-11 13h21.01 CET: sql_open: db open, max retry sleep time is 0) sudo openvasmd --progress --rebuild (output => Rebuilding NVT cache... failed.) The rebuilding of the NVT cache failed.. I checked the installation with the openvas-check-setup --v9 Step 2: Checking OpenVAS Manager ... OK: OpenVAS Manager is present in version 6.1+beta2. OK: OpenVAS Manager client certificate is present as /var/lib/openvas/CA/clientcert.pem. OK: OpenVAS Manager database found in /var/lib/openvas/mgr/tasks.db. OK: Access rights for the OpenVAS Manager database are correct. OK: sqlite3 found, extended checks of the OpenVAS Manager installation enabled. Error: unable to open database "/var/lib/openvas/mgr/tasks.db": unable to open database file ERROR: Could not determine database revision, database corrupt or in invalid format. FIX: Delete database at /var/lib/openvas/mgr/tasks.db and rebuild it. So I deleted the file requested and retried the following : sudo openvassd sudo openvasmd --migrate (output => md main: DEBUG:19215:2016-02-11 13h21.01 CET: sql_open: db open, max retry sleep time is 0) sudo openvasmd --progress --rebuild (output => Rebuilding NVT cache... failed.) It is worse now with version 9..
