I’m running Greenbone with docker on Ubuntu; I noticed the feeds weren’t updating for some time, I inherited the system.
I managed to get into the right container and execute the greenbone-feed-sync, it only runs with --type, so executed it one at a time for SCAP, GVMD and CERTS, but there is no option for NVT.
I have trawled the documentation and can find reference to greenbone-nvt-sync but that’s not in my installation; upon restarting the openers server the feed status for NVT does goto current, then old, indicating that the scripts haven’t been updated.
How do I resolve this?! I’m not entirely sure where to continue research.
Personally I guess you don’t use the official docker containers and instead some other random containers. We are not aware of these container images nor can we support them. Most of them are broken in some kind.
Pretty confident it’s the Greenbone provided docker containers, they are called greenbone-community* and the presence of the start and setup script that is provided.
I ran greenbone-feed-sync as the admin page said they were out of date, and that script is what I found through research to resolve.
