Component upload failed

We are having issues when trying to upload components/plugins that we always get an error message that the "component upload failed". Is there a log somewhere for this feature? What are the required permissions on the directories that this utilizes? currently it is owned by nagios:nagios 755, but apache is running under the apache user.

Please run tail -f /var/log/httpd/error_log in a terminal, and try to upload it after that's running. Post the error result for us to take a look at.

Can you run the following in an ssh session on your Nagios XI host.

Code: Select all

tail -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/cmdsubsys.log
Then go into XI and try uploading the component again. Also try a plugin.

What output is produced in the SSH session?

Can you please upload the file:
/etc/sudoers
Also, any files in /etc/sudoers.d/
