cgi files not found

[peppos]

I've installed nagios on my server but when connecting on http://ip/nagios3 except from the home page all other pages return an error message like

The requested URL /cgi-bin/nagios3/status.cgi was not found on this server.

The specific paths/files (/cgi-bin/nagios3/status.cgi) exist on server.

When opening the actual url on a new tab (e.g.http://ip/cgi-bin/nagios3/status.cgi?se ... le=summary) i still get the same error but after changing the url to http://ip/nagios3/cgi-bin/status.cgi?se ... le=summary it's working, so i don't know if this has to do with the aliases or something else..?

Can you post your apache alias settings in /etc/apache2/conf.d/ ? Looks like an alias issue.

Thanks for the reply!

in etc/apache2/conf.d/ there's a nagios3.conf which is like a shortcut for /etc/nagios3/apache2.conf

The content of this file is:

Code: Select all

# apache configuration for nagios 3.x
# note to users of nagios 1.x and 2.x:
#	throughout this file are commented out sections which preserve
#	backwards compatibility with bookmarks/config for older nagios versios.
#	simply look for lines following "nagios 1.x:" and "nagios 2.x" comments.

Is this the right file?

Code: Select all

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/nagios3 /usr/lib/cgi-bin/nagios3
ScriptAlias /nagios3/cgi-bin /usr/lib/cgi-bin/nagios3

I'm wondering if the second rule is overwriting the first. Try commenting out the second one and restarting apache.
