Running OpenVAS 9 on Centos 7.5. I installed OpenVAS a while back via the RPMs. Now I would like to migrate the DB to Postgresql.
Installed postgresql server and then ran openvas-migrate-to-postgres. When it ran it complained that the role ROOT did not exist so I created that role with superuser power. Ran it a second time this time it complained that the DB tasks did not exist so I created that. Third time it ran to finish with no errors. Now that it has run I still do not believe I am using the postgresql db. So I did some more googling and found that openvasmd can take the —database= option. So I passed it the path that postgresql reports when you run a ps on it. The openvasmd.log complains about sqlite not being found. So clearly that does not work. Either I am not doing it correctly or maybe the stock RPMs were not compiled to support postgresql??? After even more research I found this: https://fossies.org/linux/misc/openvas/openvas-manager-7.0.3.tar.gz/gvm-7.0.3/doc/postgres-HOWTO <https://fossies.org/linux/misc/openvas/openvas-manager-7.0.3.tar.gz/gvm-7.0.3/doc/postgres-HOWTO>. Anyone have any clue? Louis
