bjoernricks commented 5 years ago

@jessie4736 did you follow the Configuring PDF Reports section at https://www.linuxincluded.com/installing-openvas-on-centos-7/ ?

We need a detailed instruction to be able to reproduce your issue. Which GSA page did you use to download the pdf and which icon did you click. There are several possibilities to download a report.

jessie4736 commented 5 years ago

@bjoernricks yes, i follow the Configuring PDF Reports section at https://www.linuxincluded.com/installing-openvas-on-centos-7/

but still not work

bjoernricks commented 5 years ago

but still not work

And we still need a detailed description what you are trying to do.

@jessie4736, I was also not able to generate pdf reports. Resolved the issue after installing few packages specified below.

bjoernricks commented 4 years ago

@gobind-singh please let us know which distro in which version you did use and where you did the packages from. Also it would be good to let the distro packagers know about these missing dependencies.

gobind-singh commented 4 years ago

@bjoernricks actually i compiled it from source code and was not able to generate the pdf reports. Then after struggling a lot with this issue figured out the prerequisites required for generating pdf reports and came to a conclusion that the packages i mentioned previously are required. os versions which i used: ubuntu16.04 and ubuntu18.04 package manager: apt

bjoernricks commented 4 years ago

These requirements are listed here https://github.com/greenbone/gvmd/blob/master/INSTALL.md#prerequisites-for-optional-features too

gobind-singh commented 4 years ago

texlive-latex-base is not mentioned but when i installed it, pdf reports were getting generated. Also xsltproc package was also needed for generating pdf reports, as it was mentioned under HTML didn't installed it at first place and installed later as it was also needed.

cfi-gb commented 4 years ago

https://packages.debian.org/buster/texlive-latex-extra: https://packages.debian.org/sid/texlive-latex-extra:

dep: texlive-base (>= 2018.20190227)
    TeX Live: Essential programs and files

This is a hard dependency and will be always installed if you install the "texlive-latex-extra" prerequisite correctly.

In prerequisites for generating PDF reports: xsltproc package is also needed. Please confirm
