This was corrected in SVN and I passed the issue along to our webmaster. I'm not sure when the files will be updated.

Hi,

I now get the error:

It appears as though the VMware SDK has not yet been installed on your Nagios XI server. You must install the SDK before you are able to use this wizard.

when trying to select guest OS. I have checked that SDK and plugins are installed as per the VMWare monitoring guide. I this wizard issue or a problem with my install?

Thanks
Chris

mcleodc,
Did you install the nagios::plugins perl library, per the instructions? The order does not matter, but you need to install some components that we could distribute. There is now a script that does this in...
/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/vmware/scripts/install.sh

Hi,

I have re run

cd vmware-vsphere-cli-distrib/
./vmware-install.pl

and

yum install -yq perl-Class-Accessor perl-Config-Tiny perl-Math-Calc-Units perl-Params-Validate
rpm -Uvh perl-Nagios-Plugin-*.rpm

All showed as already installed, the vmware sdk gave the option to reinstall so I did. I have updated all packages using "yum install" could this be the issue? The nagios plugin was updated but I removed and installed the one from the guide but still no joy.

Thanks
Chris

Can you test run the check_vmware plugin? That's how the wizard detects things. you can check the wizard source code for an example.

Hi there,

i also recently installed the wizard and every time I want to start it, it tells me, that the prerequirements are not installed.
To install those I used the script you mentioned above. I also installed the prerequirements manually.
