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 entries as necessary. Make sure networking is active and working. # yum install -y wget mlocate net-tools # rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/e/epel-release-7-5.noarch.rpm # wget -q -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic |sh # yum upgrade -y # echo "unixsocket /tmp/redis.sock" >> /etc/redis.conf # echo "port 0" >> /etc/redis.conf # echo "unixsocketperm 700" >> /etc/redis.conf # echo "timeout 0" >> /etc/redis.conf # echo "databases 128" >> /etc/redis.conf # echo "maxclients 512" >> /etc/redis.conf # systemctl stop firewalld # systemctl disable firewalld # yum install redis doxygen-latex htop # systemctl enable redis # systemctl restart redis # setenforce 0 # sed -i 's/SELINUX=enforcing/SELINUX=disabled/g' /etc/selinux/config # init 6 (This is to ensure the services are all starting correctly and SELinus is permanently disabled.) # yum install openvas -y # openvas-setup Allow access from all IPs? YES Admin user: admin Admin pass: (current security scanner admin pass) # curl -k https://svn.wald.intevation.org/svn/openvas/trunk/tools/openvas-check-setup |sh Correct any errors. Note and possibly correct any warnings. # updatedb NOTE: in /etc/redis.conf the databases and maxclients lines will need to be adjusted for the most efficient usage: databases = 1 + (#of parallel tasks) * (#of parallel hosts) maxclients = 1 + (#of parallel tasks) * (#of parallel hosts) * (#of concurrent NVTs) Adjust these and of course your parallel tasks, hosts, and NVTs according to your amount of processing power and RAM (and to a lesser extent, network bandwidth). That's it. If anyone notices I'm missing anything here, please let me know. Also, if the person maintaining the documentation would be so kind as to update the web site, that would likely be helpful to other folks trying to figure this out.
