I broke my XI - NNA install

[eloyd]

Hi. I started to do the Nagios XI -> Nagios Network Analyzer integration thing, but put the wrong hostname into the field when it asked for hostname. I used a public IP that is not accessible internally. Now, no matter what I do or what I look for, I can neither continue nor delete the incorrect setting. Whenever I go back to the wizard to add a NNA server, it shows me the aborted one and has the line [ib] Failed connect to API. Check your connection to the host (using SSL?) and make sure your Nagios Network Analyzer is version 2014R1.5 or higher[/b] on it.

How can I delete this entry and start over?

You should be able to make this change by modifying the NNA integration component:

Does accessing this component screen lead to similar results e.g. you cannot change your IP?

This was most likely the missing piece. Thanks. Will check.

I look forward to hearing back from you.

Okay, interesting. It works with the proper IP, but not an /etc/hosts based name for that IP (which, admittedly, is one word, not a this.dot.that type thing). Maybe I'll do some research on whether it works if the /etc/hosts entry is dotted or not, but it's working now. Thanks for the right place to look.

No problem - glad to hear that it's working! I'll leave this case open so that you can report your /etc/hosts investigation results, if you get around to doing that.
