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?
