[mohsin2011]

Hi,

i am new to Nagiosxi i am using trial version of nagiosxi i am trying to run it on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Version 5 i have registered my RHEL 5 and updated my packages but when i try to install it as mentioned in installation guide

"http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ctions.pdf"

i got error,

"Configuring Yum...
You must be root to run /usr/sbin/rhn_check
Your Red Hat Installation is not registered or does not have proper entitlements.
Please register or enable entitlements at rhn.redhat.com."

after a lot of trying i am unable to solve it please Help ..

Run the following command in terminal:

Code: Select all

# less /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid

If you are registered with Red Hat all of your registration parameters should be defined here (username, profile, system id and so on).

You can also try:

Code: Select all

# rhn_check -v
# echo $?

The output should be 0.

If you are registered with Red Hat but you are still having issues with your Nagios XI installation we will take a closer look at it.

The installer scripts need to be run as the root user, and we HIGHLY recommend you reinstalling RHEL or CentOS without a GUI on it, it will eat more than half of your system resources and it's been known to cause package conflicts.
