Had never used it but this is only a part of the scanner, I should have told you to install security/gvm. Then carefully read the pkg-message, if you missed it; pkg info -D gvm.

You might get an error on one of the commands, it seems it's missing a dependency devel/py-shtab, just pkg install py311-shtab

Code: 
root@fbsd-test:~ # su -m gvm -c "greenbone-nvt-sync"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/greenbone-nvt-sync", line 5, in <module>
    from greenbone.feed.sync.main import main
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/greenbone/feed/sync/main.py", line 22, in <module>
    from greenbone.feed.sync.parser import CliParser
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/greenbone/feed/sync/parser.py", line 10, in <module>
    import shtab
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'shtab'
After that the command should work:
Code: 
root@fbsd-test:~ # su -m gvm -c "greenbone-nvt-sync"

The question should really be, what are your behaviours that make you vulnerable?
 
Don't forget about the security checks that get run from periodic. They give a quick overview of any CVEs against installed software and simple things like login failures and refused connections.

postgresql version is 15.7
Greenbone Vulnerability Manager version 23.5.2
 
any "meta" table in your postgresql database? did the scripts that populate the database run properly? It looks like you might have an empty database?

i can't find the public.meta . just public table in there. thanks.
 
Are you sure that you successfully populated the gvmd database? Is that database consistent with the other configuration?
Previously, this was done via
Code: 
su -m gvm
gvmd -m
I recommend checking the port's messages, as SirDice previously suggested: pkg info -D gvm.

Dear cmoerz :
thanks for your reply. all of step following manual of "pkg info -D gvm ". but that is not work. can you try a freebsd14.1 vm to test gvm ? thanks.
