Hello Adam,

Thanks for the assistance

I failed to look at the most logical place.. I thought apache2 was already configured complete.

You pushed me into the right direction..

We solved the problem by activating the cgi mods in apache2

Thanks again

Hans

Hi,

This is an apache issue (or www server, whichever one you are using). You need to tell it that this directory only contains scripts which should be run to produce the output instead of just display the content.

A quick google pointed me here, which looks like it should contain the info you need to fix it: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14792978/perl-apache-perl-script-display ed-as-plain-text

Hope it helps.

Regards, Adam

Hello,

After a fresh install xymon 4.3.30 on a new server (ubuntu 20.04 ) the website shows up.

When I use a link to a html file on the server there is no problem (allnongreen view, main view)

If the link uses the cgi folders then the screen is filled with (I Think) the contents of an excutable.

Starting with the text ELF.

I can't find errors in the apache2 logs and also the xymon logfiles shows nothing to work with.

Where should I look to fix this.

I want to migrate my current hobbit configuration from a centos 7 machine to this one

Thanks
