Having trouble starting my gvm

Linux Distribution and External Repo Discussion

I finally had synced all the stuff to the greenbone and when i tried to create a task i kept getting an error message saying "Failed to find port_list ‘33d0cd82-57c6-11e1-8ed1-406186ea4fc5’
The feed owner is currently not set. This issue may be due to the feed not having completed its synchronization. Please try again shortly."So I went on this greenbone forum and copied the recommended commands from a screenshot below and now I can’t get the gvm to start again. "Something is already using port: 9392/tcp
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
gsad 2268 _gvm 4u IPv4 14641 0t0 TCP localhost:9392 (LISTEN)

@tonatzy97 Not sure how you installed it?

How about doing clean install of kali linux (rolling)
and the run following commands

apt -y install openvas
gvm-setup
gvm-check-setup

and then just wait until feed is synced without running any random cli commands from internet? also make sure that machine contains at least two vcpus and at least 8G ram and around 80G diskspace.
