I have installed xymon via apt-get, and that seemed to go well. I can see the xymon service is running with systemd.
Apache is up and running, verified by the normal apache start page. It also appears apache knows about the xymon directory but permissions stop us from viewing the pages. The directory domain.com/xymon/ results in a 403 and domain.com/xymon/xymon.html the same.
I did manually enable the mod_rewrite for apache (as noted in the debian6 install steps) as the package noted errors on those steps.
In the /var/lib/xymon/www directory we have two directories www-data group has access to (rep and snap).
The following files and directories are owned by xymon user critical.html html/ index.html nongreen.html notes/ red.html wml/ xymon.html
Root owns gifs/ help/ menu/
With my eroded linux knowledge it seems I should change the grp ownership to www-data for all the contents of /var/lib/xymon/www. Is this so? Other changes I might need to make?
I have not made any changes to the xymonserver.cfg.
Thank you
