OpenVAS 7

[HADER Consulting]

Hi there,
after hours I managed to install OpenVAS 7 in my UBUNTU 14.04
workstation. After running openvas-check-setup i get some warnings.
I'm not able to resolve them, even after reading and understanding the
documentation.

I need further help, please:

1) Why is there an old openvasd delivered with the OpenVAS 7 version?
2) How to add an adminitrative user? With openvas 6 on an other
machine I could use openvas-adduser. This won't work after removing
openvasd, like recommended.
3) After starting the gsa on "localhost:9392" I cannot log in because
the OMP service is not started. How to start this service?
4) How to enable signature checking (I can not find hints on the
provided website)

Thanks for help
Joachim

First you should download latest version of check-setup script (
openvas-check-setup
<https://svn.wald.intevation.org/svn/openvas/trunk/tools/openvas-check-setup>)
and run it with correct version parameter (-v7)

Eero,
Thanks for the answer.
But I used the latest version of openvas-check-setup.
Any hint, what about OMP service, that is not running for using gsa?

User error, I think. Please install openvas using packages (centos 7 is
good openvas platform for new time users)

Please give more details about where you got the package/source from.
