nagios webinterace - site not found

[Box293]

when i try to access the Website and switch to "hosts" or "Services" i receive : You don't have permission to access /nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi on this server.

I suspect you need to execute these commands:

Code: Select all

sudo a2enmod rewrite
sudo a2enmod cgi
systemctl restart apache2.service

yes i'm using the nagiosadmin

a2enmod rewrite and a2enmod cgi already enabled

Please remove these lines -

Code: Select all

authorized_for_all_host=nagios
authorized_for_all_services=nagios

Then, above them, change these from -

Code: Select all

authorized_for_all_services=nagiosadmin
authorized_for_all_hosts=nagiosadmin

to -

Code: Select all

authorized_for_all_services=nagiosadmin,nagios
authorized_for_all_hosts=nagiosadmin,nagios

Now run service nagios restart - is it working at this point?

[chr1s]

no, unfortunately the same error message.

Apache2 log file says : nagios client denied by server configuration /usr/local/nagios/sbinstatus.cgi

[chr1s]

found the solution:

i made this commands again and instead of nagios, i used my nagiosadmin user

sudo useradd nagios
sudo groupadd nagcmd
sudo usermod -a -G nagcmd nagios

Glad to hear it! Are we all good to close this up then?

[chr1s]

yes thank you
