First time installed, and set up xymon, failed, NEED helps please.
Hello, I've reinstalled xymon with following steps:1) unpack the downloaded xymon binary version 4.3.28 in /tmp (as root) 2) run configure script (as root) A few info to note: used mostly default values including group-ID=nobody IP-address of this host = 172.20.10.5
run: make (as root)
run: make install (as root)
Notes from xymon after the installation You must configure your webserver for the Xymon webpages and CGI-scripts. A sample Apache configuration is in /home/xymon/server/etc/xymon-apache.conf If you have your Administration CGI scripts in a separate directory, then you must also setup the password-file with the htpasswd command.
To start Xymon, as the xymon user run '/home/xymon/server/bin/xymon.sh start' To view the Xymon webpages, go to http://centos_hp0/xymon

Looks more like an Apache config problem than Xymon. Do you have FollowSymLinks set? e.g.
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"
<Directory "/var/www/html"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride None Require all granted </Directory>
Then I would take a look at the apache error log, it's usually pretty helpful in pointing out what the problem is. — Adrian Ball || ade at hp5.co.uk

I missed some of this thread, but don’t I remember that this is CentOS 6?
In that case, you should just put the xymon-apache.conf file in /etc/httpd/conf.d
Otherwise, if that’s not possible, for this error, this sounds like root can’t get to th /home/xymon/server/etc directory, or that file. Permissions, possibly selinux? Are you running selinux?

That sounds suspiciously like a selinux prolblem. You could try turning it off temporarily:
$ sudo setenforce 0
then start/restart apache
If that works you will have to fix the selinux problem.

Everyone was right on followings: added this line at the bottom of file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: include /home/xymon/server/etc/xymon-apache.conf
and Paul Root was right about Selinux, so I did:
modified file /etc/sysconfig/selinux #SELINUX=enforcing KERN testing .... SELINUX=permissive rebooted.
it works now!!! Thank you!!!I can go home and feel good, will do more learning tomorrow :) Let's go GreenThis email contains 100% recycled electrons.

Hello, I've reinstalled xymon with following steps:1) unpack the downloaded xymon binary version 4.3.28 in /tmp (as root) 2) run configure script (as root) A few info to note: used mostly default values including group-ID=nobody IP-address of this host = 172.20.10.5
run: make (as root)
run: make install (as root)
Notes from xymon after the installation You must configure your webserver for the Xymon webpages and CGI-scripts. A sample Apache configuration is in /home/xymon/server/etc/xymon-apache.conf If you have your Administration CGI scripts in a separate directory, then you must also setup the password-file with the htpasswd command.
To start Xymon, as the xymon user run '/home/xymon/server/bin/xymon.sh start' To view the Xymon webpages, go to http://centos_hp0/xymon
I'm kind of pausing at "You must configure your webserver for the Xymon webpages and CGI-scripts"... Any additional help is greatly appreciated.Kern -- Let's go GreenThis email contains 100% recycled electrons.

I thank to everyone who has replied to my email, if I miss anyone, I do apologize. Ok, so I've got super confused and you know what, I'm going to start everything all over fresh and clean -- that way, I can document it as I go along. I will do followings:1) shutdown xymon, and apache 2) I will even remove xymon ID and recreate it.3) keep /etc/hosts.cfg cat /etc/hosts.cfg 172.20.10.5 centos_hp0 # bbd http://centos_hp0/ 4) remove xymon's stuff in /etc/httpd/conf.d5) keep my test file for testing apache: /var/www/html/index.html cat index.html Welcome to Kern's webserver (sorry, I'm a real novice with apache since I'm a DBA)
- anything else should I do as parts of trying to uninstall xymon, then reinstall? Thank you!!Kern --

Looks more like an Apache config problem than Xymon. Do you have FollowSymLinks set?e.g.DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"<Directory "/var/www/html"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride None Require all granted </Directory>Then I would take a look at the apache error log, it's usually pretty helpful in pointing out what the problem is.— Adrian Ball || ade at hp5.co.uk|| http://www.hp5.co.uk/Tel: 01629 822886 || Yahoo/AIM/MSN: adeatwollaton Mobile: 07539 623647 || http://www.facebook.com/adrian.ball3________________________________________...
