Session times out after about 30 seconds

[dkowalski]

Last system configuration problem that I can see... for now.

The nagiosadmin session times out about 30 seconds after being logged in. To combat this while setting up I enabled the auto login for the nagiosadmin account. Not a great or secure permanent solution, the current alternative, working in 30 second spurts is mostly annoying too. I was hoping you might have a fix for this one as well.

Don,

Did you check your log files for errors or anything unusual, that can point you to the right direction? Try checking:

/var/log/httpd/error_log
/var/log/messages
/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log

httpd/error_log results: broken pipe messges then I get dropped like an ugly apple.

If you haven't done this already, try:

Code: Select all

yum install ntp
ntpdate pool.ntp.org

[lmiltchev]

Install the XI System Profile Component.

http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Ad ... nt/details

Then go to: Admin->System Config->System Profile, copy and paste the info, so we can review it. You can also click on the "Download Profile" button, save the "profile.txt" file and upload it.

Are you using either the LDAP or AD authentication components with your XI install?


Currently digging some more on this error:

Code: Select all

[Fri Feb 10 10:49:15 2012] [info] [client 10.1.0.1] (32)Broken pipe: core_output_filter: writing data to the network

Here's a solution I found for that error:
http://24x7servermanagement.com/blog/?p=350

[dkowalski]

the Apache directive had already existed within the httpd.conf file, the line was commented out. Ive enabled it, saved it, and restarted the httpd service. Ill check my logs in for the error and report back. I disabled the auto login for nagiosadmin account, logged out, and back in. My session timed out after about a half minute much to my disappointment.

I double checked to see if I had accidentally enabled AD or LDAP when I was exploring the settings on the management tab. both are disabled.
