Custom includes cannot upload

[snapon_admin]

I'm getting an error when trying to upload anything to the custom includes component in 5.3. What directories do I need to look at for the permissions for this?

Code: Select all

Could not upload file snapITnoc.png
Verify permissions on upload directories.

[tgriep]

The 3 subfolders in this folder

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/custom-includes

Need to have the permissions changed.
Go to that folder and run the following as root.

Code: Select all

chmod 770 images
chmod 770 css
chmod 770 javascript

I had the same problem and can confirm tgriep's suggestion works. Here is what the perms looked like before (non-working)

Code: Select all

[root@XIcent7 custom-includes]# ll
total 32
-rwxr-x--- 1 nagios nagios    55 Oct  6 13:36 CHANGES.txt
drwxr-x--- 2 nagios nagios    34 Oct  6 13:36 css
-rwxr-x--- 1 nagios nagios  3236 Oct  6 13:36 custom-includes.inc.php
drwxr-x--- 2 nagios nagios    34 Oct  6 13:36 images
-rwxr-x--- 1 nagios nagios    97 Oct  6 13:36 install.sh
drwxr-x--- 2 nagios nagios    34 Oct  6 13:36 javascript
-rwxr-x--- 1 nagios nagios 19210 Oct  6 13:36 manage.php

And after...(working)

Code: Select all

[root@XIcent7 custom-includes]# ll

Ok cool, that did it, thanks! No how would I use this tool to say, modify the image on the Operations Center to a custom one that I made? I've done it before, but I always forget where that nocscreen file is and I never wrote it down because I figured that would just make too much sense. If I'm understanding this component properly, I should be able to modify that screen now and have it not break on update which will make me go back to customizing it again.

[tgriep]

The Operations Screens icon is in this folder

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/opscreen/images

Replace the nagios.png with your icon and refresh the screen to see it on the Operations Screen menu.

[snapon_admin]

That's for Operations Screen, I was looking for the Operations Center. That is actually located here: /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/nocscreen. If I modify that php, though, it is overwritten whenever I update Nagios. Is it possible to use the custom includes component to modify that php and have it persist through updates? I'm assuming that's what the custom includes is for, I may be incorrect in that assumption.

[avandemore]

Custom Includes are for css, javascript, and images. They will not alter PHP.

You can always create a diff file and apply the patch after every update. It's easy enough to automate as well.
