"Backend login to the Core Config Manager failed"

Post by mindspring »

Hi there,
The customer above is getting an error when using the autodiscovery wizard. When we apply the configuration we get the error
"Backend login to the Core Config Manager failed"

I have attached the two files required to debug.

Can anyone assist please?

Tnx

Have you, or one of your users changed the mysql database's login credentials? Either on the database itself, or in the interface? Have you instituted a ramdisk or offloaded your database recently?

Please remove the following files, then try to apply config:

Code: Select all

rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/nagiosql.*

I encountered this problem before.

after changing core config manager (CCM) password, I got this error.

Therefore, I re-changed the password to default which is "welcome"

Then, the problem has gone.

@mindspring

Did slansing's suggestion help? BTW, have you tried resetting the security credentials (Admin->Reset Security Credentials)?

Can you show us the "// db-specific connection information" section from the "/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/config.inc.php" file? Hide the sensitive info ("non-default" passwords, etc.).

Also check if you have database errors in the mysqld.log:

Code: Select all

tail -20 /var/log/mysqld.log
