Nagios Support Forum

Hello,

I am trying to installed Nagvis at Nagios Core. But when i use username & password it shows "You are not authenticated".

I already tried automatic installation via apt-get install nagvis & also manual method but no luck. please help me.



Thanks

What version of core and nagvis are you running?
Can you post the apache vhost config for nagvis?

here is the apache2 virtual host config file

# NagVis Apache2 sample configuration file

# #############################################################################

Alias /nagvis "/usr/share/nagvis/share/"

<Directory "/usr/share/nagvis/share/">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

# To enable Nagios basic auth on NagVis use the following options
# Just uncomment it. Maybe you need to adjust the path to the
# Auth user file.
#
# If you use the NagVis internal auth mechanism based on the web
# for you won't need this.
#
#AuthName "NagVis Access"
#AuthType Basic
#AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users
#Require valid-user

# With installed and enabled mod_rewrite there are several redirections
# available to fix deprecated and/or wrong urls. None of those rules is
# mandatory to get NagVis working.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /nagvis

# Use mod_rewrite for old url redirection even if there are php files which
# redirect the queries itselfs. In some cases the mod_rewrite redirect
# is better than the php redirect.
#
# Using the php redirect seems to be better in some cases where https/http servers
# are mixed. For example in OMD setups where using apache own mode and https in the
# frontend and http in the backend apache servers.
#
# Disabling this redirect by default in the hope that the php direct works better.
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/nagvis(/config\.php|/index\.php|/|)(\?.*|)$
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /nagvis/frontend/nagvis-js/%1%2 [R=301,L]

# Redirect old regular map links
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/nagvis/frontend/(wui|nagvis-js)
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} map=(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /nagvis/frontend/nagvis-js/index.php?mod=Map&act=view&show=%1 [R=301,L]

# Without map= param
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/nagvis/frontend(/wui)?/?(index.php)?$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /nagvis/frontend/nagvis-js/index.php [R=301,L]

# Redirect old rotation calls
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/nagvis/frontend/nagvis-js
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !mod
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} rotation=(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /nagvis/frontend/nagvis-js/index.php?mod=Rotation&act=view&show=%1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
</Directory>

Why did you comment out the lines below?

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

Change them to:
restart apache and try logging in NagVis again.

Thanks it works
