I'm running openvas9 on ubuntu that I installed from packages based on instructions here https://launchpad.net/~mrazavi/+archive/ubuntu/openvas
I ran fast-and-full scan against a single host and I watched the status move slowly towards 100% and at last marked as Done. After a while, say when it was around 12%, I started a tcpdump to see what it was sending but didn't see any packets destined for the host I was testing. Oddly, I can see ssh and other connections from this computer to the scanned host, but openvas just seems not to be doing anything! At the end of the scan, I click on the task and see there is one report. I click on the 1 and it tells me; The report is empty. *The filter does not match any of 1 results.* It's the same if I go to the Reports, there's no report! Now I know it must have started sending data because the host knew it was being port scanned but after a while, openvas just seemed to send nothing at all. I got a message from bitdefender blocking the port scan. So it must have done something early on. So this is odd. It seemed to start to scan but then I had no evidence of it scanning, and at the end, I see no evidence of a report. And no error message either. So it seems like it didn't work...

Suggestions? Was it a mistake to try openvas 9?
