Try /opt/nessus/sbin/nessus-update-plugins -v
or /opt/nessus/sbin/nessus-update-plugins -vv
In the first case ( -v ) you get the list of downloaded plugins
In the second case, this is like "sh -x" : you get all the actions of of
the update : connection to the server, download....
( redirect the output in a file it can be VERY verbose)
Very useful to check what is really going on.
Anyway, if you run nessus-update-plugins several times in a row, the
second run detect that the plugins are already up-to-date
and quit almost immediately.

Re: Plugin update error
Dear Patrice,
Thank you very much for the reply. But I dont have any all-2.0.sig file
anywhere on my server. Sometimes when I run the "nessus-update-plugins"
command it just comes to the prompt without giving any out put. I dont
know whether its updating or not.
plugin_feed_info.inc
PLUGIN_SET = "200609190015";
PLUGIN_FEED = "Registered (7 days delay)";
[root@mail tmp]# /opt/nessus/sbin/nessus-update-plugins
[root@mail tmp]# /opt/nessus/sbin/nessus-update-plugins

[root@mail tmp]# /opt/nessus/sbin/nessus-update-plugins
Thank you.

Check in yours /tmp or ~/tmp directory : maybe it remains an old
all-2.0.sig . You just have to delete it.

Plugin update error
Dear All,
I installed Nessus latest version on a CentOS server. But it does not
allow me to do the update even after registering properly. It gives the
error "all-2.0.sig is not the valid signature for all-2.0.tar.gz
Aborting". Pls help.
Thank you,
Yasantha
[root@mail tmp]# /opt/nessus/bin/nessus-fetch --register xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-
xxxx-xxxx
Your activation code has been registered properly - thank you.
Now fetching the newest plugin set from plugins.nessus.org...
all-2.0.sig is not the valid signature for all-2.0.tar.gz
Aborting
An error occured while fetching the plugins. Your Nessus installation
may not be up-to-date.
[root@mail tmp]# /opt/nessus/sbin/nessus-update-plugins
