[Nagios-users] Subdirectories in Nagios installation dir.
Hi, I tried to install Nagios 2.0 on Fedora Core 4 according to the Nagios V. 2.0 documentation. All of commands and options are same with those in the document. But in the Nagios installation dirctory (/usr/local/nagios), there is no "etc" subdirectory. What did I do some wrong? -- Park, Jong-GeunEngineerServer Platform Research TeamInternet Server Technology GroupDigital Home Research DivisionETRI (Electronics & Telecommunications Research Institite) Office : +82-42-860-1796 Fax : +82-42-860-6699Mobile : +82-50-2474-2474E-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED]MSN : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage : www.cyberlation.net

Re: [Nagios-users] Subdirectories in Nagios installation dir.
Which repository has the latest build for FC4? Dag Wiers is only doing FC3. If you want to install the FC3 rpm on FC4 using YUM - I found that I needed to configure my repos.d file for DAG specifying a specific version, otherwise yum doesn't find it. like this: [dag] name=Dag RPM Repository for Fedora Core baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/fedora/$releasever/en/$basearch/dag gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 Replace the "$releasever" with "3" Is there a better way? thx Toby [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 02/14/2006 12:52:41 AM: > On Tue, 14 Feb 2006, Jong-Geun Park wrote: > > > I tried to install Nagios 2.0 on Fedora Core 4 according to the Nagios V. > > 2.0 documentation. > > Have you tried to install with `yum install nagios`? > > That is the fast lane and your config files live in /etc/nagios > > Hugo. > > -- >I hate duplicates.

You didn't run 'make install-config' after compiling. That will install _sample_ configuration files in ~nagios/etc. Other targets include -- *** Compile finished *** If the main program and CGIs compiled without any errors, you can continue with installing Nagios as follows (type 'make' without any arguments for a list of all possible options): make install - This installs the main program, CGIs, and HTML files make install-init - This installs the init script in /etc/rc.d/init.d make install-commandmode - This installs and configures permissions on the directory for holding the external command file make install-config - This installs *SAMPLE* config files in /usr/local/nagios/etc You'll have to modify these sample files before you can use Nagios. Read the HTML documentation for more info on doing this. Pay particular attention to the docs on object configuration files, as they determine what/how things get monitored! -- Marc --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Amazing to me that in all the months I've been lurking in this list there was no mention of this tidbit until 2/9/06. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.network.nagios.user/37418 Didn't recall that post when I was replying. Also amazing that this is not mentioned on the nagios.org download page. But the plugins are not included in Extras so if you want to install them via RPM you search pbone.net and find the Dries RPM repository and luckily he has a FC4 RPM posted there for plugins-1.4.1, not the latest but usable. Related question - why does rpmfind.net and pbone.not NOT include the Extras repository? I guess what I'm thinking is that we need a wiki so we can all contribute what we've learned and organize it in a way that's helpful to new and longtime users alike. > > > If you want to install the FC3 rpm on FC4 using YUM - I found that I > > needed to configure my repos.d file for DAG specifying a specific version, > > otherwise yum doesn't find it. > > like this: > > [dag] > > name=Dag RPM Repository for Fedora Core > > baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/fedora/$releasever/en/$basearch/dag > > gpgcheck=1 > > enabled=1 > > > > Replace the "$releasever" with "3" > > > > That's an amazingly bad idea. > Yes it is - only suggested as a temporary workaround to install a package when you can't find the package in a repo for the release you're running. Definitely not recommended to leave it set that way. Thanks, Toby --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!

Ethan just directs you to a third party repository. Why would he need to track or care how it's organized? I'm personally surprised he's chosen to link to a specific repository in the first place.
