Nagios XI fails - new install

Post by randyt777 »

running the ./fullinstall script fails

MySQL already initialized - skipping.
Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory

The script that failed was: './3-dbservers'

I have checked the mysql (mariadb) and its running and accessible with from command line nagios password

mysql -u root -p

Not sure where to go from here - any clues?

Did you have mariadb installed before you began the installation?
Important: Nagios Enterprises highly recommends and will only support installing Nagios XI on a newly installed, "clean" system (a bare minimal install with nothing else installed or configured).

Can you try again with a bare minimal install system?
