gtk not found ... Nessus install
During the complile phase installing Nessus on Debian. I get this error:
configure: warning: **** gtk not found If I let the compile / install finish, the daemon starts fine, but when I try to start the client. it fails with 'Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display' Gtk is, of course, installed, and the installation on my Fedora box had no such problem. Any suggestions? |
Check the README for Nessus, maybe your version of gtk is old. After you install any lib you may have to do ldconfig so that Nessus will find the new lib.

My GTK is new, I added /usr/local/lib to ld.so.conf, I ran ldconfig ... same problem ... any other suggestions
|
By new, what version? My only other solution would be if you install Nessus from source instead, if your configure still complains you could always take a look at config.log, that will tell you where it looked for gtk, what it found and what the problem is. I am not sure how to check those things with apt. :/

You aren't by any chance trying to run the nessus client as root? This could produce the kind of error message you get. I've run nessus only a couple of times to check the security of my desktop setup (I use tiger for daily security monitoring) but, AFAIK, the nessus client is supposed to be run as normal user. Here's the contents of /usr/share/doc/nessus/README.Debian :
