Scans interrupted

Community Containers

Hi @ all :slight_smile:

I did a new installation of the Community Containers following the official guide. However, as soon as I start a new scan, I immediately get the following logs and the scan is interrupted:

The host is Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS with all updates installed.

Do you have any ideas why the scans fail?

Best regards

Hi, can you have a look at the /var/log/gvm/openvas.log file in your ospd-openvas container? It should contain some additional error hints.

Thank you :slight_smile:

In the mentioned logfile I could see the following lines:

libgvm boreas:WARNING:2022-11-17 14h28.47 utc:492: set_socket: failed to open ARPV6/ICMPV6 socket: Address family not supported by protocol
libgvm boreas:WARNING:2022-11-17 14h28.47 utc:492: start_alive_detection. Boreas could not initialise alive detection. Boreas was not able to open a new socket. Exit Boreas.

I found this old thread ARPV6/ICMPV6 socket: Address family not supported by protocol - #5 by Dagmar where I already commented some time ago. I’ll enable IPv6 on the host and see if it helps…

Edit: Looks good, scans are running now :slight_smile:
