Is there any chance that you start "clean" (run the installer on a new, clean system, minimal install)? It may take less time to do this vs troubleshooting each step along the way. The idea is to have a clean install of XI, where you can restore from a backup, correct?
echo 'show databases;' | mysql -t -u root -pnagiosxi nagios
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql |
| nagios |
| performance_schema |
| test |
+--------------------+


This is our only test box, I could probably contact the unix team about flashing the VM and doing a clean install + restore. I was just hoping to avoid that. I can probably get that done though, may take some time depending on their work load and they may want a change ticket :/

Do you want to continue with debugging this or are you going to create a new VM and start over?
