Hi,
While I'm trying to access Nagvis, got the below error.

Unable to authenticate user. The environment variable PHP_AUTH_USER is not set or empty.

Hi.,
I"m unable to open the thread.

I will directly quote what is relevant from that thread:

Make sure you have all these lines commented out in the "/etc/httpd/conf.d/nagvis.conf" file:

Code: Select all

# AuthName "NagVis Access"
# AuthType Basic
# AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagiosxi/etc/htpasswd.users
# Require valid-user

Then, add the following lines on the bottom of the file (under the "</Directory>" line):

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine   on
RewriteLock     var/log/rewrite.lck
RewriteLog      /dev/null
RewriteLogLevel 0
RewriteRule     /nagvis/ - [E=REMOTE_USER:nagiosadmin]

Open the "/usr/local/nagvis/etc/nagvis.ini.php" file in a text editor, and comment out this line:

Code: Select all

logonenvvar="PHP_AUTH_USER"

so that it will look like this:

Code: Select all

; logonenvvar="PHP_AUTH_USER"

Restart apache:

Code: Select all

service httpd restart

Let me know if this worked.
