Hi I guess somthing wrong with your httpd.conf The http server isn't the way to start nagios. Only this code you have to ad in httpd.conf **
ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin /usr/local/nagios/sbin <Directory "/usr/local/nagios/sbin"> Options ExecCGI AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all AuthName "Nagios Access" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users Require valid-user </Directory> Alias /nagios /usr/local/nagios/share <Directory "/usr/local/nagios/share"> Options None AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all AuthName "Nagios Access" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users Require valid-user </Directory> **Looks like you include some nagios.cfg code in your httpd.conf Sjaak > Why am I getting this error? > > $ /etc/init.d/httpd start > Stopping httpd: [FAILED] > Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 19 of /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg: > Invalid command 'log_file=/var/log/nagios/nagios.log', perhaps > mis-spelled or defined by a > module not included in the server configuration > [FAILED] > > This is line 19 of the nagios.cfg. > log_file=/var/log/nagios/nagios.log > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
