Hi,

I am running CentOS Linux release 8.2.2004 (Core) and I am referring to Full GVM-11 Build Guide for CentOS 8 - Greenbone Community Edition - Greenbone Community Forum

while building each package I am facing CMake Error as mentioned below.

[root@openvas8 build]# pwd
/opt/gvm/src/gvm-libs-11.0.1/build

[root@openvas8 build]#cmake … -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gvm
CMake Error: The source directory “/opt/gvm/src/gvm-libs-11.0.1/build/…” does not exist.
Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.

Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance and I look forward to hearing from you.

Best Regards,

Hi,

Is it single dot or double dot or three dot as per the below command line?

cmake … -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gvm

Thanks and Regards,

Kaushal

It is the path to the directory where the sources are located. In this case it is two dots.

@indusvalley @kaushalshriyan but nevertheless I have to admit you should not build from sources if you have such basic issues already. If you don’t know how to install a compiler, run make and cmake it will be a big hurdle for you. Especially with such a big and complicated suite like GVM.

@bricks Thanks for the clarification. Are there binaries for CentOS / RHEL OS?

71

Hi,

Checking in again if there are any binaries available for GVM based OpenVAS application or is it only to compile from source code available in compressed tar ball file as of now?

@caseybea
I got here in your order and there was an error

gvm@localhost ~]$ greenbone-ntv-sync
-bash: greenbone-ntv-sync：Command not found
[gvm@localhost ~]$ find /opt/gvm/var/lib/openvas/plugins | wc -l
1

73

It’s greenbone-nvt-sync. Network Vulnerability Test (NVT).

74

@caseybea

When I type “greenbone-ntv-sync”, “greenbone-scapdata-sync” and also “greenbone-certdata-sync”, it always comes out the error information “-bash: greenbone-ntv-sync：Command not found”.
I do the steps by your post, and I want to know where I have done wrong.

75

Hey @benson82208, did you read my message? It is NOT greenbone-ntv-sync. That’s a typo. It is greenbone-nvt-sync!

76

@bricks
Oh, thank for your reply,
But, I tried “greenbone-nvt-sync”
It still comes out " command not found.

[gvm@localhost ~]$ greenbone-nvt-sync
-bash: greenbone-nvt-sync：Command not found

77

In that case you don’t have installed the scanner component.

do you find solution for this

@bricks
My weak scan was normal, but today I found it failed and the log showed the following error:

lib osp:WARNING:2020-08-25 04h40.06 utc:10073: osp_get_vts_version: element VTS missing.
md manage:WARNING:2020-08-25 04h40.06 utc:10073: manage_update_nvt_cache_osp: failed to get scanner_version

81

This may occur when the scanner (ospd-openvas) is (still) loading the feed data (the vulnerability tests).
