This was easy until I got to the additional instructions for icingaweb2. 'yum install icingaweb2' fails, and some investigation shows that there isn't an icingaweb2 package at the repo (http://packages.icinga.org/epel/). I did find another one (SLES, I think), but no RedHat.
So, how should I install this? Are there any rpms, or do I have to install from source? Is it still beta? should I even be installing it at all? Should I use an alternative front-end? CentOS 5.6 is too old so you wouldn't expect there the recent versions of all icinga components. If it's really CentOS5, you should at least upgrade to the most recent point release before trying further (iirc that's 5.11 or 5.12). Additionally you'll need php53 instead of php (similar to Icinga Web 1.x), and if you're planning to use PostgreSQL, postgresql84 instead of postgresql. Then the joy of php53-pgsql linking against postgresql8.1 begins, which is known to contain memory leaks and introducing problems (we already had that with Icinga Web 1.x). For MySQL it should work, although 5.1 is painfully compared to mysql55. In the end, you'll go for at least el6. I would suggest you to install on recent distro like CentOS 7. +1 el5 is fairly ancient, and el7 offers a good base for the upcoming years. And you'll certainly find more users in the community when asking for problems. You might go for packages, but during beta and rc phasis, I'd go for git cloning the master into /usr/share/icingaweb2, running the web based installer, and pulling that steadily. Note: Packages don't replace the configuration nor do an automated database setup on rhel-based systems. And if you can't find packages online, you may still build your own. https://wiki.icinga.org/display/howtos/Build+Icinga+RPMs
From my personal point of view I'd rather remove support for icinga2 and el5 as well, but we have to live with that until 2017 at least.
