Looks like I told you the old directory: https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide/httpd.html

conf-available: this directory contains available configuration files. All files that were previously in /etc/apache2/conf.d should be moved to /etc/apache2/conf-available.

Sorry about that. So in the future we should be able to do it automatically with:

Code: Select all

./configure --with-command-group=nagcmd --with-httpd-conf=/etc/apache2/conf-available

This probably means the Nagios server isn't running. We can check that with:

Code: Select all

[root@core]# service nagios status
No lock file found in /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock

This tells us Nagios isn't running. Then to start it:

Code: Select all

[root@core]# service nagios start
Starting nagios: done.
[root@core]# service nagios status
nagios (pid 6224) is running...

With chkconfig installed you can check that Nagios is set to start automatically:

Code: Select all

[root@core]# chkconfig --list nagios
nagios          0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off

If it's not set to start automatically, we can change that with:

Code: Select all

chkconfig --add nagios
