Thank you for your response. I will give further information and continue testing and resolving some of the problems. I should have made notes on the installation.
The hardest part that took me a while was the new stable release of Apache 2.4 on Red Hat Fedora which changed the configuration files around and the format of the conf files. This is not a Icinga problem but maybe a heads up for what Apache 2.4 is bringing to the table. Another thing is I noticed Icinga changed the PHP Framework to Zend. This is a good thing becuae the previous framework was confusing to me but that is just me. Zend is a well founded PHP Framework that just works and is well known. Should I move this topic to the dev mailing list?

Thanks for testing the early in-development version of Icinga Web 2. Please keep in mind, that there is no public release nor any alpha/Beta version yet. So if something breaks, or remains broken, it means no harm, and we should work together in fixing this - best by creating a new issue at dev.icinga.org > > I have installed Icinga Web 2 and it wasn't easy.

There are some issues still open for a) making the install method more comfortable b) create a web installer and finally c) create packages. I am currently working on the c) part for RPMs. https://dev.icinga.org/issues/5638 https://dev.icinga.org/issues/3761 https://dev.icinga.org/issues/4075 > I would be willing to help but for now I need a working installation. In any case, when asking here or creating an issue, please provide the following information to make the developers and users life easier - distribution and version - webserver+version, php version - additional webserver configuration - how did you install icingaweb2? (if source, full cmd line. if packages, which repo) - until there is a public release, please extract git HEAD sha1 commit (git log -1) - icingaweb2 configuration changes, if any - icingaweb2 logs/debuglogs containing insights - webbrowser dev console with additional errors? > I have running on my server and the login page comes up.

The reason why LDAP has been chosen as primary auth method is simple: The developers are using a Vagrant Box for their development stages (everyone uses the same platform, etc). Within that box, openldap is running serving a base schema allowing further development on that feature requirement. But indeed you are correct that the other authentication methods require to be tested and implemented as well. I recently ran into the problem that the db auth was broken too and created an issue which had been fixed before cebit. Maybe there's a regression that fix in the current git master. https://dev.icinga.org/issues/5706 So in order to fix that issue (and not do any nitpicking on db auth vs ldap auth!) I'd love to see all the required information outlined above. Feel free to open an issue on dev.icinga.org in the Icinga Web 2 section directly and let developers know. best regards, Michael -- DI (FH) Michael Friedrich michael.friedr...@gmail.com || icinga open source monitoring https://twitter.com/dnsmichi || lead core developer dnsmi...@jabber.ccc.de || https://www.icinga.org/team irc.freenode.net/icinga || dnsmichi _______________________________________________ icinga-users mailing list icinga-users@lists.icinga.org https://lists.icinga.org/mailman/listinfo/icinga-users _______________________________________________ icinga-users mailing list icinga-users@lists.icinga.org https://lists.icinga.org/mailman/listinfo/icinga-users
