Thanks Eero and Thijs.

OpenVAS is working finally.

I made the suggested changes, I ran openvas-setup and it is now working.

        Hi!

        I did installation of OpenVAS in the CentOS 7.5 follow the
        instructions of OpenVAS’s site.
        But, I dont get execute the New Task, because appers the
        following errors:

          * (Status Code 503) Failed to start task: Service
            temporarily down

        When I execute openvassd, appears:

        ·(openvassd:2906): lib kb_redis-CRITICAL **: get_redis_ctx:
        redis connection error: Connection refused

        ·(openvassd:2906): lib kb_redis-CRITICAL **: redis_new: cannot
        access redis at ‘/tmp/redis.sock’

        ·(openvassd:2906): lib kb_redis-CRITICAL **: get_redis_ctx:
        redis connection error: Connection refused

        I created the file and gived permission for Everyone, but
        isn’t suficient.

        Can you help me?

        Thanks,
