Hi

I just upgraded to 5.2.1 but the REST API does not work

When I call

https://lbnss22/nagiosxi/api/v1/objects ... y&pretty=1

I get the following error

https://lbnss22/nagiosxi/api/v1/objects ... retty=1%22

Looking into http error log it says

File does not exist: /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/api/v1/system, referer: https://lbnss22/nagiosxi/help/api.php?&=

Looks like the reqrite rule does not work. Here the nagiosxi.conf of httpd

Code: Select all

<Directory "/usr/local/nagiosxi/html">
#  SSLRequireSSL
   Options None
   AllowOverride None
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
#  Order deny,allow
#  Deny from all
#  Allow from 127.0.0.1
#   AuthName "Nagios XI"
#   AuthType Basic
#   AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagiosxi/etc/htpasswd.users
#   Require valid-user
</Directory>

Alias /nagiosxi "/usr/local/nagiosxi/html"

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule nagiosxi/api/v1/(.*)$ /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/api/v1/index.php?request=$1 [QSA,NC,L]
</IfModule>

There is quite some config files in the httpd config directory. Maybe from previous stuff

Code: Select all

# ll /etc/httpd/conf.d/
total 76
-rw-r--r--. 1 root   root     330 Oct  3  2012 mrtg.conf
-rw-r--r--. 1 root   root    1010 Dec 18  2014 nagios.conf

Happy to delete everything except files needed for nagiosxi

Hello,

You have to add the following to /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf

Code: Select all

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule nagiosxi/api/v1/(.*)$ /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/api/v1/index.php?request=$1 [QSA,NC,L]
</IfModule>

The new PDF guide on setting up SSL also shows it here https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... s%20XI.pdf
