openvas_scanner_connect_unix: Failed to connect to scanner
also when updateing
rsync: [sender] link_stat “/feed.xml” (in scap-data) failed: No such file or directory (2)
is there any issue with updates.
More Observations
after Disabling or moving the Policy/Euler folder, the scanner started.
Any suggestion would be helpful.
what installation? source, docker or kali packages? make sure that there is enought diskspace (60-80G) and at least 8G ram (more is better)
Eero
I recommend trying, for example, Kali Linux’s prebuilt OpenVAS packages or the installation script at GitHub - Kastervo/OpenVAS-Installation: A secure, automated script to install and configure OpenVAS (Greenbone Community Edition) from source on Debian 12. Features GPG verification, self-signed SSL, and systemd integration.
Instructions for source code installation must be followed precisely, and it will work reliably when done so.
