Hi,

I am trying to sync nvt data with command: greenbone-nvt-sync --rsync and after some minutes, it completed without any error.

Hi @vietnguyen,

On SecInfo check if CVE, CPEs and others are available or not, is none of them are available, probably the SCAP data base is missing, follow this link to solve it SCAP Issues. Is very important to ready the description and follow the step-by-step instructions to solve the issue.

Hi @vietnguyen,

It is clear that the installation is not complete reason why it is missing NVTs.
I suggest you to re-run the command sudo gvm-setup to see if it fix the issue.
Note: After the process is done, login to GSA and got to Feed status and if you see: updating in process, wait until the process if finished and go to NVTs to see if the problem persists or not.

Same symptoms as reported for GVM 2.1 on Ubuntu 20.04LTS. GVM was working yesterday, but not today. Server and processed have been rebooted, and the symptoms are:

  • Administration:Feed Status:NVTs: reports “No NVT’s available”
  • running terminal operation of “greenbone-nvt-sync --rsync” shows data being loaded
  • Administration:Feed Status: has “Update in progress…” for all feed types

I will wait a day to see if the “Update in progress…” changes, but I don’t have high hopes.

I was able to get Ubuntu 20 and version 2.1 to work based on the clues posted in this thread. Basically I copied the Full and Fast scan configuration, then enabled the checkbox for Port scanners and chose Nmap (NASL Wrapper).

Also the Update in progress took many hours, but then completed successfully and GVM 2.1 works.

I had this exact same issue.
I found fix it by doing this.
Changing user and running the nvt-sync

sudo su - gvm
greenbone-nvt-sync

Didnt need to restart or anything, just logged back into the webUI and could see NVTs showing up and scanning started to work again.
