Hi Michael,

Thanks for the prompt reply.  I tried making noise on the system by doing
ls -R / as suggested by some but that didn't help.  I have also installed
haveged <http://www.issihosts.com/haveged/> but that either didn't help.  I
did "watch -n 1 cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail" and it was
consistently showing around 2500 and up.  Without Haveged it was around 10
to 50.

 What i noticed after installing the haveged
<http://www.issihosts.com/haveged/> is the browser instead of waiting for
long time to throw the 500 error, it does it right away.  The same error
messages are posted in /var/log/openvas/openvasmd.log.  I also noticed the
following error message on the terminal console although i think it is not
related.

WARNING: gnome-keyring:: couldn't connect to:
/root/.cache/keyring-WMNYWn/pkcs11: No such file or directory

Hi,<br>
<br>
I am encountering a problem with storing a credential using the Greebone<br>
Security Assitant web client.   After clicking on the submit button the<br>
interface hangs and eventually i am getting the error message below:<br>
<br>
Operation:   Create Credential<br>

Below are the error message in the /var/log/openvas/openvasmd.log log file.<br>

Running the openvas-check-setup script shows everything is okay.   Below is<br>
my setup.<br>
<br>
I am running OV version 6 on Kali.<br>
OpenVAS Scanner is present in version 3.4.0.<br>

OK: OpenVAS Administrator is present in version 1.3.2<br>
OK: Greenbone Security Assistant is present in version 4.0.0.<br>
OK: OpenVAS CLI version 1.2.0<br>
<br>
Appreciate any help on resolving this issue.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>

Seems you are less on entropy. Make some &quot;noise&quot; on your system during \
key-generation<br> or install <a href="http://www.issihosts.com/haveged/" \
