All,

I have installed the latest version available to CentOS. I have run the setup OK but the first try (on the 'Welcome dear new user' page does not produce any output (says - Done - )

openvas.noarch 1.0-13.el6.art
openvas-cli.x86_64 1.3.0-5.el6.art
openvas-libraries.x86_64
openvas-manager.x86_64 5.0.3-21.el6.art
openvas-scanner.x86_64 4.0.1-13.el6.art

When I try to scan myself as a test my log files read like this...
