 Posted: Fri Nov 23, 2012 4:09 am Post subject: nagios / apache - permission problem |
 |
|
I'm following standard "nagios" installation but I'm running into some permission problem.
I've followed standard installation procedure:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/nagios-guide.xml
But I could not even login with password, so I transfered the authentication method from file:
/etc/nagios/auth.users
to:
/etc/apache2/users
and it worked, I can login but it seems to me the problem might be with my apache.
Nagios can not read any file in /etc/nagios directory. When I click on host (in nagios) I get: | Code: | | Error: Could not open CGI config file '/etc/nagios/cgi.cfg' for reading! |
I have cgi.cfg files installed with correct permission: | Code: | modules.d/99_nagios3.conf
<IfDefine NAGIOS>
ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/nagios/cgi-bin/
<Directory "/usr/lib/nagios/cgi-bin/">
AllowOverride AuthConfig
Options ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Directory>
Alias /nagios /usr/share/nagios/htdocs
<Directory "/usr/share/nagios/htdocs">
AllowOverride AuthConfig
Order allow,deny
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Directory>
</IfDefine> |
| Code: | ll /usr/lib/nagios/cgi-bin/
total 3292
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 238088 Nov 22 19:52 avail.cgi
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 238712 Nov 22 19:52 cmd.cgi
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 209336 Nov 22 19:52 config.cgi
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 254440 Nov 22 19:52 extinfo.cgi

So why apache can not read /etc/nagios/ directory?
My apache modules.d/00_default_settings.conf | Code: | ...
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</Directory>
# added below
<Directory "/var/www/localhost/htdocs">
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
... |
but the above is not it. As I change the permission to
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
and it did not help. |

Solved.
I think it is a bug in Gentoo nagios setup. Directory /etc/nagios should have a permission 775 | Code: | | drwxrwxr-x 3 nagios nagios 4096 Nov 22 20:11 nagios |
