openvas v7 service problems on fedora

Unread post by brene »

Hello,
in the atomic repo is an installation for openvas on fedora. I have installed openvas and tried to start it, but i got some erros. The problem is, that the services are still for openvas v6 and not compatible to v7.

In /etc/init.d/gsad you have to remove --alisten and --aport, because thats for the openvas administrator, but they removed the administrator in v7.
#[ "$ADMINISTRATOR_ADDRESS" ] && PARAMS="$PARAMS --alisten=$ADMINISTRATOR_ADDRESS"
#[ "$ADMINISTRATOR_PORT" ] && PARAMS="$PARAMS --aport=$ADMINISTRATOR_PORT"

In /etc/init.d/openvas-scanner you have to remove the "-q“ option in start().
daemon $EXEC -q $PARAMS -> daemon $EXEC $PARAMS

Just made some updates on this for Fedora 17-20 today. I think Ive smoothed out most of the rough edges at this point. I could definitely use some other eyes on the packaging on this one though!
