Nagios Support Forum

Hi,

We are getting the below error while trying to install the Nagios agent on Ubuntu servers in DMZ environment.

# add-apt-repository ppa:nagiosinc/ppa
Error reading https://launchpad.net/api/1.0/~nagiosinc/+archive/ppa: <urlopen error [Errno 111] Connection refused>

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 11.04
Release: 11.04

Do we have any pre-complied binaries for Ubuntu as well which we can copy on to the servers.

We provide ppas for ubuntu:
http://ppa.launchpad.net/nagiosinc/ppa/ubuntu/dists/
For some reason the repo is not working correctly, so you may to grab the correct agent from teh link above.

We have added the below url to sources.list

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/nagiosinc/ppa/ubuntu/ natty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/nagiosinc/ppa/ubuntu/ natty main

then we have run the apt-get-update and observed the below error.
W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net natty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY B18637BB5175BC68

Ignoring the error we tried to install the agent

# apt-get install nagios-agent
Reading package lists... Done

nagios-agent is already the newest version.
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nagios-agent : Depends: nagios-nrpe-server but it is not going to be installed
Depends: nagios-plugins but it is not going to be installed
Depends: nagios-snmp-plugins but it is not going to be installed
Depends: gawk but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: libnagios-plugin-perl but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

We are new to Ubuntu, hence request you to provide the complete steps to proceed with installation of the agent.

We have a document on how to install the agent, but lauchpad's repo is not currently working. I have reached out to ubuntu, but I have not heard back. We are talking internally about providing our own debs, but I do not think we have moved forward with it yet. You may need to install from source:

You can tell it where the headers are:
