NagiosXI Installation error

[whoa]

I'm running CentOS 5.6 with all current updates applied. From su - I do a ./fullinstall w/i the nagiosxi directory and it appears to go a fairly long way but I get an "INSTALLATION ERROR" and it stops. Here's the last few lines from the failed installation:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/install -c -m 755 -o root -g root -d /etc/rc.d/init.d
/usr/bin/install -c -m 755 -o root -g root daemon-init /etc/rc.d/init.d/ndo2db

INSTALLATION ERROR!
===================

The script that failed was: './A-subcomponents'
[root@localhost nagiosxi]# 

So I go download "ndoutils-1.4-0.6.b8.el5.x86_64.rpm" and:

Code: Select all

[root@localhost nateh]# rpm -i ndoutils-1.4-0.6.b8.el5.x86_64.rpm
warning: ndoutils-1.4-0.6.b8.el5.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 217521f6
error: Failed dependencies:
        nagios < 3 is needed by ndoutils-1.4-0.6.b8.el5.x86_64
[root@localhost nateh]# 

Not real sure how to proceed after that...So anyone have any ideas?

[whoa]

All I'm trying to do is install NagiosXI and compare it to Nagios Core version... So whats the difference and how would someone suggest installing it.?..because the manual way simply isnt working out for me...

Please help

Is there an easier way of doing a fresh install of NagiosXI? I'm using VirtualBox as the virtual server medium with plenty of resources and CentOS 5.2. Any help would be appreciated.

If you are having difficulties with the manual install, you can try installing Nagios XI, using the VMware Virtual Machine image. VMware player is free.
You can read more about the installation process here: http://library.nagios.com/library/produ ... ain#vmware.

Once you get it going, you may try converting it from VMware to VirtualBox. We have a document, explaining how to do this: http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ersion.pdf.
