Nagvis link returns 404 error

Post by QS1 »

Nagios XI 2014R2.3 (virtual)
64-Bit Centos 6.6 OS

I want to start using Nagvis with Nagiosxibut when accessing the Nagvis link within NagiosXI i receive the following:
----------------------
Not Found

The requested URL /nagvis/ was not found on this server.

Apache/2.2.15 (CentOS) Server at x.x.50.59 Port 443
----------------------
I tried using http://x.x.x.x/Nagvis also but get the same 404 error

I see there is a new release avaialble 2014R2.7 but I don't see many threads about Nagvis lately on your support forum. Any ideas?

Nagios XI (2012 and newer) ships with NagVis by default. I am not sure why you are having these issues. You should see a "NagVis" link under "Maps" menu on the left hand side. When you click on it, you should be able to log in as the "nagiosadmin" using the same credentials you use in XI...

Have you tried to install NagVis manually or upgrade the existing version? If you did, most probably this is what caused the issue.

Run the following commands and show us the output:

Code: Select all

ll /usr/local/nagvis/
grep Readme /usr/local/nagvis/README
cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/nagvis.conf

OK. There does not appear to be a Nagvis folder in usr/local directory on the production machine. I did start to follow the instructional http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... I.pdf..and downloaded the .sh file..but saw the disclaimer at the top that it had been integrated...so I stopped

I have another Nagiosxi instance for sandbox (2014R1.4) is does the same thing with the Nagvis link producing the Not Found Error..I've not applied anything to this server..the usr/local/Nagvis folder on this machine does not exist either

How did you install XI? Is this a "source install" or you used one of our VMs? If you used the source installer, did you follow the document below:

https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... ctions.pdf

or you used some custom/offline install method? Have you modified in any way our install scripts? Do you have the "install.log" available for a review?

It was a source install. I created the VM and used the install instruction referenced. I can't find the install.log within searching..would it be in any particular area of Nagios or Nagiosxi?

The "install.log" should be in "/tmp/nagiosxi/" directory. Can you run the following commands and show us the output?

Code: Select all

ll /usr/local/
grep Readme /usr/local/nagvis/README
cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/nagvis.conf
