Problem Creating Repository

I continue to get the following error when attempting to create a repository.
The snapshot repository in directory /usr/local/nagioslogserver/archives/snapshots_repository could not be created. Possibly due to permissions. Make sure the nagios user can write to the location.
Permissions are good.
drwxrwxrwx. 2 nagios nagios 6 Jun 16 10:12 snapshots_repository.
School me please.

Doing good Vinh. I tried your commands but no change. Same error as before: The snapshot repository in directory /usr/local/nagioslogserver/archives/snapshots_repository could not be created. Possibly due to permissions. Make sure the nagios user can write to the location.

Hi Marcus,
Do you have SELinux turned on?
Please run this:
Can you manually create a file under "snapshots_repository"?
Code: Select all
su - nagios
touch /usr/local/nagioslogserver/archives/snapshots_repository/test.out
ls -laZ /usr/local/nagioslogserver/archives/snapshots_repository/
Best Regards,
Vinh

Hi,
It would be very helpful if you could upload screenshot of the error(s) on the webpage?
Please also upload outputs of these folders after you have reboot your server:
ls -la /usr/local/nagioslogserver
ls -la /usr/local/nagioslogserver/archives

Vinh
