- Plugin load failures: Check logs for parsing errors, incompatible plugin formats, or corrupted files. Re-verify checksums and re-extract if needed.
- Missing plugins or reduced detections: Confirm that the tarball includes the expected plugin IDs and that Nessus indexes the new files; run a plugin rebuild if supported.
- Permissions errors: Ensure file ownership and permissions match the Nessus process expectations.
- Version mismatches: Some Nessus installations expect plugin bundles from a matching product version; confirm compatibility between the tarball version and the Nessus engine version.
