[Openvas-discuss] Problem starting GreenBone Security Assistant compile from source.

Hello again,

I have OpenVAS running on a Ubuntu 10.04 32 bit, compile from source.

Versions:

   - openvas-libraries 4.0.6
   - openvas-scanner 3.2.5
   - openvas-manager 2.0.4
   - openavs-administrator 1.1.2
   - greenbone-security-assistant 2.0.1
   - gsd 1.2.1

So far I've been able to get everything working but the greenbone-security
assistant.

I have run the openvas-check-setup script and this is the output that
concerns the problem:

Step 7: Checking if OpenVAS services are up and running ...
        OK: netstat found, extended checks of the OpenVAS services enabled.
        OK: OpenVAS Scanner is running and listening only on the local
interface.
        OK: OpenVAS Scanner is listening on port 9391, which is the default
port.
        OK: OpenVAS Manager is running and listening on all interfaces.
        OK: OpenVAS Manager is listening on port 9390, which is the default
port.
        OK: OpenVAS Administrator is running and listening only on the
local interface.
        OK: OpenVAS Administrator is listening on port 9393, which is the
default port.
        ERROR: Greenbone Security Assistant is NOT running!
        FIX: Start Greenbone Security Assistant (gsad).

 ERROR: Your OpenVAS-4 installation is not yet complete!


Now the logs for gsad show this:
gsad main:CRITICAL:2012-02-22 21h19.28 utc:4142: main: MHD_start_daemon
failed!


And when I ran it the STDOUT shows this:
root at openvas:/opt/openvas/var/log/openvas#
/etc/init.d/greenbone-security-assistant start
Starting Greenbone Security Assistant: MHD HTTPS option 8 passed to MHD
compiled without HTTPS support
ERROR.
root at openvas:/opt/openvas/var/log/openvas#


I can start the GSD client remotely and seems to be functional but is more
manageable the web interface.

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot it?  I ran out of them.

Thank you.


Max
