Dear Jan,

can you please enter shell and run this command:

cd /var/lib/openvas/plugins && find -name "*.nasl" | wc -l

This should output you a number around ~48557. If that number is much lower, then you have NVT's missing.
Alternatively you can check via SecInfo Management in WebGUI.

As solution, you could try to run a manual Feedupdate, that should fix the issue.

Please let us know, thanks in advance.

Cheers, Michael (Eissele).

Hi guys,

i installed the newest version of OpenVAS 9 beta via Ubuntu PPA
yesterday. Installation was successfully and everything seems to work.
Openvas-check-setup also discovered no critical errors.

Before the creation of first scan tasks i updated the nvt cache via
CLI "openvas-nvt-sync" and "openvasmd --rebuild --progress -v". No
errors.

After creating targets, schedules and tasks a few hours later i
updated/rebuilded the cache again. Now there were no more plugins left
in the web GUI (SecInfo -> NVTs).

Openvas-check-setup shows this:

ERROR: The number of NVTs in the OpenVAS Manager database is too low.
        FIX: Make sure OpenVAS Scanner is running with an up-to-date
NVT collection and run 'openvasmd --rebuild'.

It seems the table "nvts" in the sqlite-database
/var/lib/openvas/tasks.db is empty. Does someone knows a solution for
this problem?

There are other threads about this problem but nowhere i can find a solution:
