Nagios Support Forum

Hi all,

This is my first post, I'm new to nagios.

I'm installing Nagios in a Linux Mint 18.3 environment and when I try to install webconf the installer sends an Error 1

make install-webconf
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 sample-config/httpd.conf etc/apache2/sites-enabled/nagios.conf
/usr/bin/install: no se puede crear el fichero regular 'etc/apache2/sites-enabled/nagios.conf': No existe el archivo o el directorio
Makefile:298: fallo en las instrucciones para el objetivo 'install-webconf'
make: *** [install-webconf] Error 1

Translation of spanish lines:
/usr/bin/install: regular file cannot be created 'etc/apache2/sites-enabled/nagios.conf': File or directory doesn't exist
Makefile:298: failure in the instructions for objective 'install-webconf'
make: *** [install-webconf] Error 1

The directory does exist but not the file, Any suggestion to find or generate the file is welcome

Thanks in advance

Are you following any particular documentation for your Nagios Core installation? It looks as if some prefixes may have been entered incorrectly during the configure step and the leading / has been stripped from the destination path.

Are you running your make commands as root? Per the official documentation, Debian-based systems need to have root handle the Nagios Core installation. Though Mint isn't a direct fork of Debian, I'd suggest using root.

Can you share the outputs of the following commands executed from the CLI of your Mint machine: My initial hunch is it's just a permissions issue on the /etc/apache2/sites-enabled path.

Thanks for the recommendations, @mcapra. @smendoza, Let us know if that helps and also the tutorial you used to install the Core?
