Nagio VM setup

[hamilt]

Hello

We are testing Nagio XI to see if it works for our business. We downloaded the VMware version and set it up on our virtual machine. We went through the steps in the setup videos you have, step by step, and got everything set up. We tried to http into the ip address of the machine and it does not load. The virtual machine is running off of my desktop, and cannot be accessed from any other computer. Thanks!

You probably need to enabled "bridged" networking so the VM is visible to the rest of the network and not just your desktop.

-Open up VMWare Player
-Select the nagiosxi VM, make sure it's powered off.
-Select Virtual Machine->edit Virtual Machine settings from the top menu.
-Select the Network Adapter, and select the "Bridged" option from the list.

The VM should now be accessible from other machines on your local network. Check the IP address of the machine, since it will be different after the above change.

Thanks for the reply. The adapter is already in bridged mode. Does the Replicate physical network connection state need to be checked?

It shouldn't need to be....

Can you open the command-line on the VM and verify that apache is running?

Code: Select all

service httpd restart

And then check the web access again?
