Hi,

You need create an administrator user with the --create-user option of
"openvasmd":

$ openvasmd --create-user=myuser

The new user's password is printed on success.

An administrator user can later create further users or
administrators via clients like the Greenbone Security Assistant (GSA).

Also, the new user can change her password via GSA.

For more please  refer the INSTALL file from openvas-manager-6.0.7.

Thanks,
Antu

Hi All,

Since from a week and half, I am trying to search internet on fixing below error.

I installed openvas on Kali Linux and noticed that scans are getting hanged.
For that I tried

#openvas-setup

 And NVT is getting updated and hangs here. Not sure what is happening.



md    otp-Message: Scanner loading: 42600 / 45616 nvts.
/md otp-Message: Scanner loading: 43450 / 45616 nvts. \md otp-Message: Scanner loading: 44200 / 45616 nvts. /md otp-Message: Scanner loading: 44800 / 45616 nvts. \md otp-Message: Scanner loading: 45400 / 45616 nvts.


tried removing /var/lib/openvas /var/lib/cache and executed openvas-setup and still it hangs near 45000 nvts.

when I check openvas-check -setup am getting below error.

root@kali01:~# openvas-check-setup
openvas-check-setup 2.3.0
  Test completeness and readiness of OpenVAS-8
  (add '--v6' or '--v7' or '--9'
   if you want to check for another OpenVAS version)

Send us the log-file (/tmp/openvas-check-setup.log) to help analyze the problem.

  Use the parameter --server to skip checks for client tools

OK: OpenVAS Scanner CA Certificate is present as /var/lib/openvas/CA/cacert.pem. OK: OpenVAS Scanner server certificate is valid and present as /var/lib/openvas/CA/servercert.pem. OK: NVT collection in /var/lib/openvas/plugins contains 45546 NVTs. WARNING: Signature checking of NVTs is not enabled in OpenVAS Scanner. SUGGEST: Enable signature checking (see http://www.openvas.org/trusted-nvts.html). OK: The NVT cache in /var/cache/openvas contains 45546 files for 45546 NVTs.
        OK: redis-server is present in version v=2.8.17.
OK: scanner (kb_location setting) is configured properly using the redis-server socket: /var/lib/redis/redis.sock OK: redis-server is running and listening on socket: /var/lib/redis/redis.sock.
        OK: redis-server configuration is OK and redis-server is running.

md main:WARNING:21198:2016-02-09 14h21.07 utc: database must be initialised from scanner (with --update or --rebuild) ERROR: No users found. You need to create at least one user to log in.
        It is recommended to have at least one user with role Admin.
FIX: create a user by running 'openvasmd --create-user=<name> --role=Admin && openvasmd --user=<name> --new-password=<password>'

 ERROR: Your OpenVAS-8 installation is not yet complete!

Please follow the instructions marked with FIX above and run this
