Hi,

I’ve tried searching for solution to the below issue but nothing seems to
work. Have been unable to run openvas scans – it shows the below error:

Operation: Start Task

Status code: 503

Status message: Service temporarily down

Previously the status code used to be 400 and now it’s 503.

The logs under openvasmd.log shows the below details:

The initial issue was an expired certificate and that was resolved by
following the steps from http://plugins.openvas.org/ova_503.txt - but that
still does not make the scans to start. The 'openvasmd-rebuild' command got
executed within a second..

Also, all the services [openvas-scanner, openvas-manager, redis & gsad] are
running perfectly when checked via systemctl.

Would someone please let me know what next steps should be followed to
remediate this.

Thanks in advance!


Regards,

Harsh
