:?:
ok here is how I'm installing Nagios xi onto a CentoOS 6.6 virtual.
log in
sudo su -
cd /home/yourusrname (I can't install out of /tmp)
wget http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... est.tar.gz
tar xsf xi-latest.tar.gz
cd /home/username/nagiosxi
/fullinstall

when I access the Nagios web page I see the following on the top page
If I try to connect to http://myipaddress/nagiosxi i get a 404 error
I can connect to http://myipaddress/nagios I can log in as nagiosadmin and I see the following
Nagios
Daemon running with PID 1491
NagiosĀ® Coreā„¢
Version 4.0.8
August 12, 2014
Check for updates

I was following the manual installation guide. Can someone point me in the right direction to get Nagios xi running? I don't have a license is that the issue? If so how can I get a demo license

It could be a number of things, you installation process looks proper.

Try running the commands below and post the output:

Code: Select all

sestatus
ls -ld /usr/local/nagios/share
ls -l /usr/local/nagios/share
grep -R nag /etc/group

Also, not having a license doesn't affect the install, it installs by default with the trial enabled.

Thank you for your reply.

ls -ld /usr/local/nagios/share is 775 and nagios nagios
ls -l /usr/local/nagios/share the subdirectoies are 664 and nagios nagios
grep -R nag /etc/group
nagios nagios,apache
nagcmd nagios,apache

Is there a way to get a demo license so I can demo nagios xi to management

I should have posted that during the ./fullinstall it fails with the following
"ERROR: Subcomponent 'ndoutils' installation failed - exiting"
"subcomponents installation failed - exiting"

It comes with a 60 day trial by default.

Please attach your install.log from your nagiosxi installation directory.

The install failed updating this file /etc/sysctl.conf could you post it here so we can view it?

when I grep -i sysctl install.log I don't see a reference to sysctl.conf , what line in the install.log file do you see this information? If I grep -i etc install.log, I see values returned but again I see no reference to the sysctl.conf file
