Right. I got things working almost 100%. PDF export seems to not work, but HTML does and that's fine for the moment. For those it may benefit, here's my instructions list for installing OpenVAS on a fresh CentOS 7 server: Install CentOS7, minimal from ISO. Set passwords. Add DNS and DHCP

The doc/redis_config.txt (from openvas-scanner) has some tips and information on how OpenVAS expects redis to be set up (and also example configs for 2.4 and 2.6). What you are probably missing are: unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock unixsocketperm 700 You will also probably want to turn of
