Nagiosgraph Access Forbidden

[tariqondego]

Just installed nagiosgraph but i am getting this error:

Code: Select all

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /nagiosgraph/cgi-bin/show.cgi on this server.

Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server at 192.168.253.59 Port 80

Please advise

Can you show us the permissions on the show.cgi file on your Nagios server?

Code: Select all

ls -l /path/to/nagiosgraph/cgi-bin/show.cgi

Did you configure nagiosgraph with apache?

First configure the web server to run the nagiosgraph CGI scripts. For
example, with Apache do something like this in the Apache configuration:

ScriptAlias /nagiosgraph/cgi-bin /usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi-bin
<Directory "/usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi-bin">
Options ExecCGI
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Alias /nagiosgraph "/usr/local/nagiosgraph/share"
<Directory "/usr/local/nagiosgraph/share">
Options None
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Restart the web server:

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Yes i did configure nagiosgraph for apache2:

Code: Select all

# enable nagiosgraph CGI scripts
ScriptAlias /nagiosgraph/cgi-bin "/usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi"
<Directory "/usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi">
   Options ExecCGI
   AllowOverride None
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
</Directory>
# enable nagiosgraph CSS and JavaScript
Alias /nagiosgraph "/usr/local/nagiosgraph/share"
<Directory "/usr/local/nagiosgraph/share">
   Options None
   AllowOverride None
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
</Directory>

The nagiosgraph.conf resides in /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/

The permissions for show.cgi are:

Code: Select all

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  5358 Ado 21 10:16 show.cgi

Try changing the following two lines from this:

Code: Select all

ScriptAlias /nagiosgraph/cgi-bin "/usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi"
<Directory "/usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi">

to this:

Code: Select all

ScriptAlias /nagiosgraph/cgi-bin "/usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi-bin"
<Directory "/usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi-bin">

then restart apache2. Did this fix your issue?

[tariqondego]

No,beacuse the 'show.cgi' file is in /usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi.
There is no 'cgi-bin' folder.
'bin' folder is seperate.

Still getting the same error.


please advise.

What are the permissions of the folders above this?

Code: Select all

ls -ld /usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi
ls -ld /usr/local/nagiosgraph

[tariqondego]

The persmissions are:

Code: Select all

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Ado 21 10:16 /usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi
drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 Ado 21 10:16 /usr/local/nagiosgraph

Please advise.

[sreinhardt]

Well the folder permissions do have other+RX, so technically apache should be able to access at least those folders. Let's have you su into apache, and try to list and execute it.

Code: Select all

su -s /bin/bash apache (if this is ubuntu\debian the user would be apache2)
ls -lart  /usr/local/nagiosgraph
ls -lart /usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi
/usr/local/nagiosgraph/cgi/show.cgi
exit

[tariqondego]

Ok,done that and it executes ok.
But from browser its still bringing the 'Forbidden' error.

Please advise.
