Try enabling "use_authentication" in your cgi.cfg by changing the line to:

use_authentication=1

Then restart apache and nagios:

Code: Select all

service nagios restart
service httpd restart

I don't see any change after restart.....

Any change in the error logs?

Code: Select all

tail /var/log/httpd/error_log

These problems are most likely due to cgi issues. You may have permission/path problems or vhost config issues.

I don't have any problem with path or permission because i checked path and permissions by myself. The only problem that I am facing is with configuring nagios vhost to apache 2.4.4 due to the changes made by apache during upgrade from 2.2 to 2.4. Can you help me, How do i config my nagios vhost to match apache 2.4.4????

Do you have :

Code: Select all

Options +ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

Declared in your httpd.conf?

Nope...

You vhost config may not be right for the location of your cgis. Where are your nagios html and cgi files located?

Code: Select all

ls /usr/local/nagios/sbin/
ls /usr/local/nagios/share/nagios/cgi-bin
ls /usr/local/nagios/share

But I don't see any directory named /nagios/cgi-bin under /usr/local/nagios/share/

You will need to change the the share script alias line: ScriptAlias /nagios "/usr/local/nagios/share/nagios/cgi-bin" to ScriptAlias /nagios "/usr/local/nagios/share/" You are using the Authtype "Digest". Did you generate the key with htpasswd or htdigest?

Code: Select all

ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin "/usr/local/nagios/sbin/"
<Directory "/usr/local/nagios/sbin/">
AllowOverride None
Options ExecCGI
Require all granted
AuthName "Nagios Web Access"
AuthType Digest
AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users
Require valid-user
</Directory>

ScriptAlias /nagios "/usr/local/nagios/share/"

<Directory "/usr/local/nagios/share/">
Options None
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
AuthName "Nagios Web Access"
AuthType Digest
AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users
Require valid-user
</Directory>

In your question "Did you generate the key with htpassword or htdigest?" I don't understand what type of key you are exactly asking me about. According to my understanding, I think that I have used "htpasswd" because I used htpasswd -c command to create username and password for login credentials.
