Hi , I m not sure but i faced a similar problem. You can try to connect to the redis socket and run:redis-cli -s <socket> flushall The <socķet> is the unixsocket path you can find in /etc/redis.conf.It should return OK. Then restart the openvas scanner with:systemctl restart openvas-scanner. It will retrieve all the nvt infos and put them back in redis.You can check that by running redis-cli -s <redis-socket> info keyspaces You should have one database with lot of data. Then, try to launch a new scan. -------- Message d'origine --------De : Tyler Doman <[email protected]> Date : 24/08/2017 23:38 (GMT+01:00) À : [email protected] Objet : [Openvas-discuss] Openvas scanner won't start
Openvas was scanning fine for several days then suddenly stopped. The greenbone gui was running fine but wouldn't let me initiate new scans since it said the service was down. I ran openvas-check-setup and it said everything was ok except the scanner service was down. So I ran /etc/init.d/openvas-scanner start and it returned, "openvas-scanner.service failed because a timeout was exceeded. See 'systemctl status openvas-scanner.service' and 'journalctl -xe' for details." When I run 'systemctl status openvas-scanner.service', it says, 'load Failed to start Open Vulnerability Assessment System Scanner Daemon.' I tried purging openvas, rebooting, reinstalling, running openvas-setup but it hangs up and freezes at the end of the process. Are there any other options besides wiping out Kali and restoring a new Kali image? I really want to avoid doing that if possible.
