Apply config is successful, but prompt still there

[andrewatmacys]

Whenever I apply the config on my installation of Nagios XI through the UI, it applies successfully but the prompt to apply the config remains whenever I navigate to a new page or log back in, even when a config is not being updated. What could be causing this? as far as I know, it isn't causing any problems but I want to make sure that it isn't doing something wrong behind the scenes.

Hi @Andrew,

Sometimes if the time and time/zone settings are not in sync between the server and php you can have issues when applying configuration. Let's verify the time settings ( see reference below), and then apply configuration and capture the log output to review any errors.

1. Run the following to check the time settings.

Code: Select all

grep "date.timezone" /etc/php.ini
ls -l /etc/localtime
php -r 'echo date("D M j G:i:s T Y")."\n";' 
date 
echo "SELECT NOW();" | mysql -u root -pnagiosxi

2. Tail the log file

Code: Select all

tail -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/cmdsubsys.log

3. Next Go to Configure, CCM -> Tools -> Config File Management
Click Delete Files
Write Configs
Verify Files

Then Apply Configuration and post the output of the log for us to review. Thanks.

I don't have root access, but did the remaining parts in the meantime while I get someone to help with that.

It seems to have worked, at least right now. I can still post the log, but it's got a lot of info that I don't believe is necessarily related to the problem.

Ok. Just give us an update if you experience any issues.

Sounds good.
