Hi Thomas! I've just taken over maintainership of the nagvis package and wanted to let you know, that your bug hasn't been forgoten. I agree that ideally a simple apt-get install nagvis should result in a working installation, but I'm not sure, if all of the issues can be fixed. * Knaller, Thomas <[email protected]> [110512 07:48]: > In order to get it working, you need to edit several files: > /etc/default/ndoutils > set ENABLE_NDOUTILS=1 > remove # in front of SOCKET=.. > > /etc/nagios3/nagios.cfg > add line broker_module=/usr/lib/ndoutils/ndomod-mysql-3x.o > config_file=/etc/nagios3/ndomod.cfg > > > restart ndoutils and nagios3 services Yes, ndoutils have to be activated. This is documented in /usr/share/doc/ndoutils-nagios3-mysql/README.Debian. I fear there is nothing I can do in the nagvis package, so I clone this bug report to the ndoutils package, and well's dicsuss this issue seperatly. > /etc/nagvis/nagvis.ini.php > under the section [backend_ndomy_1] > you need to specify dbname, dbuser and dbpass, even though it's stored > under /etc/dbconfig-common/ndoutils-mysql.conf and there is a file called > /etc/dbconfig-common/nagvis.conf in which there is nothing configured. Hmmm... Seems that the handling of the configuration was at one point broken. That's something I can try to fix (and which might be even get included into a fix for the stable package; but I'll have to check that first). However, please also note, that these parts of nagvis have been changed with recent upstream releases, so I hope in will work better with future version of the nagvis package. > automatically adding a link to nagvis from nagios menu would also be great, > this is an edit in /usr/share/nagios3/htdocs/side.php, > specifying something like this: > <li><a href="/nagvis" target="<?php echo $link_target;?>">Nagvis</a></li> > > somewhere the nagvis-link fits (i.e. under the link to "Map". I'm sorry, but I fear that's something that can't be done. While I understand your motived, doing that would completly violate the Debian policy, and the Debians package management system can't really handle such changes, so even if I changed that file (ignore that in theory you could run nagvis on a seperate box than your nagios installation), it would be lost with the next upgrade of the nagios package shipping it. So I fear that's something you'll have to do by hand. Best Regards, Alexander -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
