Problem with new install

Hello all,

I am trying to set up Nagios Core, I am fairly new to Linux and completely new to CentOS

I downloaded CentOS and installed it as a virtual machine using ESXI.

I followed the guide provided by Nagios ( http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... Source.pdf )

The last step says

After correctly following the procedures you should now be able to access your Nagios Core installation from a web browser. Simply use the following:
http://<your.nagios.server.ip>/nagios


I have tried going to http://192.168.4.30/nagios which is the IP address for the CentOS machine, but it does not load says page cannot be found. Is there anything I am missing?

Is apache running?

Code: Select all

service httpd status
If it is not run:

Code: Select all

service httpd start
Were you able to get nagios itself started? Do you have firewall rules preventing you from accessing port 80?

Code: Select all

cat /etc/sysconfig/iptables | grep 80

Thanks for your quick reply. It was firewall based. Have now switched the firewall off and it is now working.

Thanks
