Hello,
I just installed openvas on a Ubuntu 18.04 server and the initial installation (via
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mrazavi/openvas) using sqlite.
Now I want to migrate to postgres and installed postgres 10, configured the database and run the script openvas-migrate-to-postgres without errors.
But:
How to I configure openvas to use postgresql database?

Thanks,
Daniel

You do it at compile time, so check with your 3rd Party vendor if he has included PSQL support at all, if not you need to compile it on your own.

Thank you for your answer, I will change from a repository based installation to self compiled.
