Hi,
I'm facing an issue with the xymon server.
I have setup a fresh installation of xymon 4.3.17 on a RHEL 6 box. I have only the server defined in hosts.cfg. The main page displays ok, but when I click on a "smiley" it just shows "Cannot load host configuration". In the xymonnet.log I get the following:
2014-06-27 04:24:51 -> Could not connect to Xymon daemon at 10.106.50.129:1984 (Connection refused) 2014-06-27 04:24:51 -> Recipient '10.106.50.129', timeout 15 2014-06-27 04:24:51 -> 1st line: 'extcombo 2000 2291 2617'
I also get this in the Apache error_log:

I have setup the host in /etc/hosts file, the name is resolvable, the 1984 port is opened and accepting connections. The only solution I could find online was to restart the server but that didn't help.
I'm fairly new to xymon, so if I missed something and if any additional info is required I'll be happy to provide.
Thanks.
