Unable to load cusotm MIB

[nagiosuser1406]

Hi,

when trying to load a custom MIB via the Web gui - i am getting the error message below:

MIB could not be installed - directory permissions may be incorrect

I have looked around the forum and found some suggestions to run the following

chown root:nagios /usr/share/snmp/mibs
chmod g+w /usr/share/snmp/mibs

Unfortunatly this has not solved the problem - does any one know of a fix ?

currently runing

NagiosXI v5.2.8

Thanks

[rkennedy]

What is the full output of these commands?

Code: Select all

ls -al /usr/share/snmp/
ls -al /usr/share/snmp/mibs/

Can you run the following commands and post the output?

Code: Select all

grep nag /etc/group
grep nag /etc/passwd

Try changing the permissions to the following and see if that works for you.

Code: Select all

chmod -R  ugo+w /usr/share/snmp/mibs

[nagiosuser1406]

unfortunately it still the same result when i attempt to upload a custom MIB

its also the same if i try to load a custom Plug in from the web GUI - i get the same message

Plugin could not be installed - directory permissions may be incorrect

[tgriep]

Can you post the MIB file you are trying to upload and the /etc/php.ini file from the XI server?

[nagiosuser1406]

please see attahed ..

PowerNet-MIB.txt

The MIB attachment above is actually a .mib file extension - the forum does not allow upload of .mib file extensions

php.ini

many thanks

[tgriep]

Found it, it is the max upload size setting in the php.ini file
Edit the /etc/php.ini file and change this lime from

Code: Select all

upload_max_filesize = 2M

to

Code: Select all

upload_max_filesize = 20M

Save the file and run this to restart Apache.

Code: Select all

service httpd restart

This will allow you to upload files to the server with the max size of 20 Meg.
This should be large enough for most files, if not, you can increase it again.
