localhost/nagios 404 not found

[ziedmahjoub]

Hello , Im working on IT in a company and i'm new at nagios , i installed ubuntu server 14.04.1 and free Nagios core. i made the installation with this faq :

http://ubuntuserverguide.com/2013/02/ho ... 12-10.html

but i installed nagios-4.0.8 instead of 3.4.4 .

After i completed the installation , when i open http://localhost/nagios/ ,it told me :
NOT FOUND
The requested URL /nagios was not found on this server.

i checked apache2 and nagios services and they are running .

Someone has an idea what can be the porblem ?

Did you make sure to run:

Code: Select all

make install-webconf

During the build process? I'm not sure why that was missing from the guide, but I've ran into this issue when I don't do that. Take a look at:

In addition to sams link here is a great resource for Ubuntu 14.04 for configuring core 4: http://www.unixmen.com/install-configur ... 4-1014-04/

Here is a detailed guide to install core on Ubuntu 14.04.

i installed the webconfig in my installation .

guys do u recommand me to reinstall it again ?

[abrist]

After the web config install, did you restart apache?

Code: Select all

service httpd restart

Or:

Code: Select all

service apache restart

wowowowoowwo , i juste realise it now , when i type : make install-webconf

i got this message :

/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 sample-config/httpd.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios.conf
/usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file '/etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios.conf': No such file or directory
make: *** [install-webconf] Error 1

and i dont have httpd and conf.d directories in /etc/

i think in new apache2 version we have /etc/apache2/conf-available who is doing their job , right ?

i made this solution requested in this guide :
http://www.unixmen.com/install-configur ... 4-1014-04/

the solution says :

You may get the following error:

/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 sample-config/httpd.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios.conf
/usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file ‘/etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios.conf’: No such file or directory
Makefile:296: recipe for target 'install-webconf' failed
make: *** [install-webconf] Error 1
The above error message describes that nagios is trying to create the nagios.conf file inside the /etc/httpd.conf/ directory. But, in Ubuntu systems the nagios.conf file should be placed in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ directory.

So, run the following command instead of using sudo make install-webconf.

sudo /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 sample-config/httpd.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/nagios.conf


but it didn't solve my problem

Hello,

i solved my problem with creating the files needed :

mkdir /etc/httpd
mkdir /etc/httpd/conf.d
mkdir /etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios.conf

and its solved !!!

but i didn't understand how !! Because i think that in the new apache version /etc/httpd/conf.d and /etc/apache2/conf.d are replaced in /etc/apache2/conf-available .
SO how when i create httpd and conf.d my problem is solved ?
Maybe in the Markfile webconf still linked to /etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios.conf ?
