Hi - I've successfully done a get and full build (make and make install) of the trunk of version 9 of OpenVAS. I've also successfully retrieved all of the scripts. My issue is with redis.server and being able to specify another location besides /tmp/redis.sock. I found some references online about the hard-coding of the path having been fixed in 2015 and I saw another article that mentions putting the setting in a config file in /etc/openvas/openvassd.conf, but when I do that, I still cannot get OpenVAS to look there for the location of the socket file. In the /etc/openvas/openvassd.conf file, I have: kb_location=/var/run/redis/redis.sock
In the /etc/redis/redis.conf file, I made sure I have: unixsocket /var/run/redis/redis.sock unixsocketperm 700 I've confirmed that the socket file is there when redis.server starts up. I'm trying to start up openvassd, but getting the following error: (openvassd:20208): lib kb_redis-CRITICAL **: get_redis_ctx: redis connection error: No such file or directory (openvassd:20208): lib kb_redis-CRITICAL **: redis_new: cannot access redis at '/tmp/redis.sock' (openvassd:20208): lib kb_redis-CRITICAL **: get_redis_ctx: redis connection error: No such file or directory I'm sure I'm missing something simple, but a little help would be much appreciated. Platform: Ubuntu 16.04 Thanks in advance, Mark [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
