Nagios Core Installation

[aajewole]

Hello,

I am new to the forum, not sure if this is the right place. I installed nagios core last November for my new company and it has been working great. Today, I found out according to standard, apps need to be installed on a different file system. I already have nagios running from the default path /usr/local/nagios. How can I move this to a different path including apache? If I start fresh (which I can, since I have backup of all files and folders), the installation guide do not show how to install nagios on different file system, how can I achieve this?

Thanks

You will need to recompile Core. When you run the ./configure, you can append --prefix=/your/path/here/nagios and that will have it install to the /your/path/here/nagios directory rather than /usr/local/nagios. Apache is a bit out of what we support, but as long as the configuration files for core make it into the conf.d directory, you shouldn't have a problem.
