Web interface time out

[rlevick]

I installed nagios according to the directions here:
http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... Source.pdf

Other than the bad command to cd to the nagios directory (should be nagios-4.0.2), I didn't have any issues. Unfortunately I cannot access the web console. I edited the /etc/sysconfig/iptables to allow http traffic (a suggestion in another thread). Nagios and httpd services are both running. Any suggestions?
Here is the edited firewall:

A few things to check:
Is nagios running?

Code: Select all

service nagios status

Your firewall rules look correct, but lets check with nmap just to be sure:

Code: Select all

nmap localhost

Lets also check the apache logs:

Code: Select all

tail -25 /var/log/httpd/error_log

[rlevick]

Well this isn't good.

[root@localhost ~]# nmap localhost
-bash: nmap: command not found



[Wed Jan 15 11:01:30 2014] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/

[rlevick]

I had check this before:
[root@localhost ~]# service nagios status
nagios (pid 1643 1640 1639 1638 1637 1633) is running...

[abrist]

Well this isn't good.

[root@localhost ~]# nmap localhost
-bash: nmap: command not found

Not really, you probably just don't have the package.
For ubuntu/debian systems:

Code: Select all

apt-get install nmap

For centos/rhel:

Code: Select all

yum install nmap

[rlevick]

The nmap install went fine. Thanks for that. What about the error in the httpd log? I still have no web access. Service httpd status shows it is running.

Well, lets start with what OS you are running for this machine, as that will greatly determine where default httpd\apache2 and nagios files will be. Then if you could post the nagios.conf from /etc/httpd/conf.d/ or /etc/apache2/conf.d/ please.

[rlevick]

It would have been good to state the OS. It's CentOS 6.5. Here is the nagios.conf:

# SAMPLE CONFIG SNIPPETS FOR APACHE WEB SERVER

# This file contains examples of entries that need

# configuration file. Customize the paths, etc. as
# needed to fit your system.

Let's list /usr/local/nagios/share just to be sure, basically it seems that you referenced the http://hostname/nagios instead of http://hostname/nagios/index.php, and initially it is not allowing you to go to index.php or that file might not be executable.

Code: Select all

ls -lva /usr/local/nagios/share
