most likely the known issue where redis is blocking any access by the scanner due to unknown reasons. This should do the trick: 1. Delete dump.rdb (somewhere in /var/run/redis or similar) 2. Comment out/remove all "save xy z" (e.g. save 900 1) from your redis.conf 3. restart redis 4. restart scanner and try again Regards, -- Christian Fischer | PGP Key: 0x54F3CE5B76C597AD Greenbone Networks GmbH | http://greenbone.net Neumarkt 12, 49074 Osnabrück, Germany | AG Osnabrück, HR B 202460 Geschäftsführer: Lukas Grunwald, Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner _______________________________________________ Openvas-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wald.intevation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openvas-discuss
