Hello, I’m installing xymon 4.2.3 on a Dell 1950 with a Redhat RHEL 5 64 bit OS. I first install
rrdtool-1.0.50-3.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm rrdtool-devel-1.0.50-3.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm pcre-8.01.zip
then
xymon-4.2.3.tar.gz
After I start httpd and xymon, two aspects of monitoring fail:
- the conn test is always red for the 90 or so servers we monitor and
- the http [wget] test is white on the four web servers we run.
We monitor both Windows 2003 servers and mostly Redhat AS 3 servers. The other monitoring tests like disk and cpu work.
netstat –van shows port 1984 is up and listening. The output on the xymon startup is what I would call nominal.
hobbit 4.2.0 has worked for years on a Redhat AS 3 server at our agency. We’re trying to upgrade here to RHEL 5.
I’ve tried substituting hobbit 4.2.0 for xymon with the same results.
The use of yum is not an option for installation on our USDOJ network.
Any ideas on why I’m getting red?
