Try updating again.  This sounds like the problem I was experiencing for which
George informed me that the plugins are fixed (there was a bug in the
plugins).  Also, you might want to include -v when you run your
nessus-update-plugins script to make sure your getting the new plugins.  As
well, you might try configuring your rc file to log the entire attack and turn
on debugging, then check your nessusd.messages and nessusd.dump files to see
what kind of debug messages you get.  One thing I also found this morning is
that the updates seem to have broken auto_enable_dependencies, so if the
plugins you're running are dependent on others, this could cause them to break
unless you specifically enable the depencencies in your rc file.

That was it. Just updated every day until the problem went away. Since each
update until this morning's created different errors, it was obvious that it
was just a plugin issue.

Thanks for everyone's help
