Landscape Security Profiles

[scottdbwd]

Has anyone attempted running Security profiles, i am only attempting CIS server level 1 in audit, it retirns the following error -

Landscape client failed to handle this request (usg) because the
plugin which should handle it isn't available.  This could mean that the
plugin has been intentionally disabled, or that the client isn't running
properly, or you may be running an older version of the client that doesn't
support this feature.

Landscape is the latest version and the Client is latest stable Pro is enabled and usg has been activated.

Any thoughts ?

There is a Landscape category here in the forum where you are likely getting better answers than here in the general support and help area …

@scottdbwd I moved your topic to the relevant category.

You have to make sure that the client is running version 25.04 of landscape. You also need to enable the module as per the docs:

On each instance you want to manage, follow the steps in [Ubuntu Security’s installation guide](https://documentation.ubuntu.com/security/docs/compliance/usg/install-usg/), then:

1. Edit the client configuration file `/etc/landscape/client.conf`, add this line:

include_manager_plugins = UsgManager

If your `client.conf` already includes an `include_manager_plugins` line, then add `UsgManager` to it. For example:

include_manager_plugins = ScriptExecution,UsgManager

2. Restart Landscape Client:

sudo systemctl restart landscape-client

If your client doesnt have the ppa:landscape/latest-stable enabled then it wont get the 25.04 version…
