NAGIOS XI install issues

[Constance]

Hi lmiltchev,
Your right - I had followed some instructions I found online for adding a channel via command line and seriously thought (optional) had been added successfully, but I see now it wasn't.
So after more searching....this time on the RedHat site I came across instructions for adding the channel to a system via the RedHat website (https://access.redhat.com/site/solutions/11312).

After adding it - I re-ran the ./fullinstall command and at the very end received this new error:

===================
INSTALLATION ERROR!
===================
Installation step failed - exiting.
Check for error messages in the install log (install.log).

If you require assistance in resolving the issue, please include install.log
in your communications with Nagios XI technical support.

The script that failed was: './E-importnagiosql'

I've re-attached the newly filled installed.log to this post.

It looks like you have named this host:

Code: Select all

mydsccas.daltonstate.edunagiosql

Is that name configured in /etc/hosts?

Code: Select all

cat /etc/hosts

Can the Server ping itself by name?

Code: Select all

ping mydsccas.daltonstate.edunagiosql

Hi abrist,

That used to be the name of the server before I redid the server and it never had the (nagiosql) part at the end.
The new name - which appears instead of the other in the etc/hosts file is: istation.daltonstate.edu

cat /etc/hosts:
"@istation etc]$ cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
10.4.10.112 istation.daltonstate.edu istation"

Also, yes I can ping istation.daltonstate.edu and get replies:

"istation etc]$ ping istation.daltonstate.edu

Actually, the error output looks like you have some httpd redirect setup to redirect request to localhost to https://mydsccas.daltonstate.edu

This would need to be removed...

[Constance]

I've modified the redirect and am still getting this new error message.
I really appreciate everyone's help and time on troubleshooting. I'm going to remove everything and build the server from scratch again and will hopefully have better luck during round 2.

I'll definitely come back to this forum topic and post the results.

Thanks again!

Constance

Sounds good. We'll keep this open, but please do not reply until you have tested on round 2.
