Issue with scanning?

Hi,
I was wondering if someone else has had this issue before, currently installed OpenVAS on Kali linux the 2020. Installed with no issue, but the problem is that i try to scan a network 192.168.3.0/24 it does not show anything which is odd because i nmap it shows few devices
i also tried

openvasmd --rebuild

Thank you

I had this same issue, everything is working but it would never scan. I scrapped Kali and went with Ubuntu and openvas9 and it worked right out of the box. https://www.fosslinux.com/7320/how-to-install-and-configure-openvas-9-on-ubuntu.htm was the walk through I used. The only thing I did was on the initial ‘sync’ i added --rsync because people have been having issues with http saying not a bzip2 file

Hi,

I have to mention it again. Kali only provides and outdated and unsupported version of our software. It is very likely your issue is already fixed in a newer version. Please take a look at About the Greenbone Source Edition (GSE) category for more information about our releases.
