The username specified does not exist - New Install

Post by aap »

Hi,

I am testing Nagios LS - deployed the OVF template and set the password for nagiosadmin. However, if I try to log in, I get "The username specified does not exist" even though I am using the correct password.

Any help is appreciated.

Interesting. I suggest changing the password manually via the CLI and trying again.

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/nagioslogserver/scripts
./reset_nagiosadmin_password.sh <password>

Thanks.

I had to reinstall the template for it to work.
