Hi Arron We had some conversation on the irc channel about it. Please reply if your setup is fixed now.
Assuming a broken cache, it would be interesting to know which cache file caused the problem. Therefore, enable following option in (PREFIX)/etc/openvas/openvassd.conf log_plugins_name_at_load = yes Then, restart the scanner and look at the output of (PREFIX)/var/log/openvas/openvassd.messages After you found out which plugin caused the issue, remove the respective .nvti file from the cache directory, e.g. rm (PREFIX)/var/cache/openvas/mybrokennvt.nasl.nvti The file will be recreated on the next startup of the scanner and your problem should be solved. -- felix On Saturday 20 February 2010 17:32:24 Arron M Finnon wrote: > Hi There Guys, > > firstly i'd like to say hi my name is Arron and i just signed up for the > mailing list. > > I've just installed OpenVAS server version 3.0.0 on Ubuntu 9.10.
