Nagios OVF Template Login not working / offline install

Post by cacirlatham »

I have recently imported the OVF for the 64bit Nagios Log Server successfully into my Vmware ESXi 5.5 server. It successfully finishes importing and when I turn it on it power up just fine. The website for Log Server launches for the first time and the configuration page comes up. I choose "New Install" and the free 60 day trial, also setting up an Admin account. When presented with the main login page I type in the admin login and password selected on the previous page, and then the page just refreshes. No error is displayed, it just kicks back to the login screen again. This OVF template is supposed to have everything all set up, so I don't think I am missing anything. The only thing is that once this system is set up it does not have the ability to hit the internet. Is that a possible reason for this behavior? Thanks.

Is there anything in /var/log/http/error_log when this happened?

Does it keep happening?

Looking at /var/log/http/error_log there are no errors, just a few notices regarding "Digest: generating secret for digest authentication ...". No errors. I tried to login to the web interface multiple times, and no additional logs are written to the error_log file. If I look at the access_log I can see the desktop IP that I am connecting from and hitting the login page and the install page for setup. There are no errors there either, just a series of GET's and POSTs.
