can login into the web interface of Nagios

Post by jtintegration »

I am trying to access the nagios web interface and it keeps spinning after I entered username and password. I am able to SSH into the fox fine. Can someone tell me what to do? Do I restart the nagios server?

thanks

restarting is not a terrible idea as far as getting it resolved quickly.

If you wish to wait a bit, can you post your /var/log/httpd/error_log and /var/log/httpd/access_log files for us to look at? If you prefer to PM, just make sure you post here that you have done so, so it shows back up on our support dashboard.

I rebooted the Nagios box and now I am able to access it through Web browser. How can I determine the root of the problem?

thanx

it sounds simply related to SQL or apache, I would look at the log files @dwhitfield mentioned above for info on why it failed.

If it's SQL-related, then the log file is going to be one of the following.

Code: Select all

/var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log
/var/log/mysqld.log
There's an off-chance it's related to https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=139 which is SQL-related, but not in the same way as the SQL logs.
