I've seen this a couple of times, and each time the problem's arisen because I've upgraded Nessus and the cached plugin descriptions somehow no longer agreed with the newer version. Shutting down the daemon, removing the directory ".desc" in the plugins directory, and restarting the daemon solved the problem.
At first, I thought this might be because I had built the binaries on a Pentium 4 system, then copied the RPMs to a Pentium II system. Sometimes "-O6" can do strange things to binary portability. :-) Unfortunately, my latest build of 2.0.12 was on the same system where the nessusd server is running.
On the off-chance "-O6" corrupted the cached descriptions, try removing them and seeing if the problem persists. It's a long-shot but... George -- theall@tifaware.com
