Nagios Support Forum

I have a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian Jesse
Installed Nagios using this procedure

http://www.howtovmlinux.com/articles/ra ... rrypi.html

First error

pi@raspberrypi ~/nagios $ sudo make install-webconf
/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

Even tho I got this I continued that step came from the Compile the source and install it section

Then all other steps ran good

So I tried to start Nagios

root@raspberrypi:/tmp/nagios_downloads/nagios-plugins-2.0.3# /etc/init.d/nagios start
[....] Starting nagios (via systemctl): nagios.serviceFailed to start nagios.service: Unit nagios.service failed to load: No such file or directory.
failed!

tried this

root@raspberrypi:/# systemctl status nagios.service
● nagios.service
Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory)
Active: inactive (dead)
root@raspberrypi:/# service nagios start
Failed to start nagios.service: Unit nagios.service failed to load: No such file or directory.
root@raspberrypi:/#


What am I missing or doing wrong here


Thanks

On Debian, the httpd directory isn't located at that location. Instead of running sudo make install-webconf try running sudo /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 sample-config/httpd.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/nagios.conf

For your second part, try the following.

Create this file at /etc/systemd/system/nagios.service with the following contents.
After that, run the following commands: This should work, let us know the result.

Thank you


It is now working

now to configure Nagios to monitor my servers etc

Thanks again

You're welcome. Good to hear it's working. I will now close this out, but feel free to open another thread if you need more assistance.
