PNP4Nagios installation

Post by raamardhani7 »

Hi Team,

I am trying to install PNP4Nagios and facing the below errors. I followed the below given URL https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/A ... os/details and it directed to the URL http://www.naemon.org/documentation/use ... hat_centos

Tried to setup using the same url and tried logging to the url [url]https://server_name/pnp4nagios[/url] and it is asking for user ID and password, could you please let me know what could be the ID and password?

Below are the steps that I followed to configure.

Code: Select all

yum install gcc-c++ rrdtool perl-Time-HiRes perl-rrdtool php-gd php php-cli wget
cd ~/
mkdir src
cd src
wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/pnp4nagios/PNP-0.6/pnp4nagios-0.6.24.tar.gz
tar -xzvf pnp4nagios-0.6.24.tar.gz -C /usr/local/src/
cd /usr/local/src/pnp4nagios-0.6.24/
./configure (i used this instead of (./configure  --with-nagios-user=naemon --with-nagios-group=naemon))
make all
make install
make install-webconf
make install-config
make install-init

Nagios XI includes PNP4Nagios 0.4.x and you should not try to install 0.6.x as it will break things.

You should just download the exact same version of Nagios XI that you have installed (you can grab it from the bottom left hand side of the web interface) to your /tmp directory then run these commands:

https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... rsions.php

Code: Select all

rm -rf /tmp/nagiosxi
tar zxf /tmp/xi-VERSION.tar.gz
cd /tmp/nagiosxi/subcomponents/pnp
./install
That should install it for you.

Please run 'make install-init' if you want to use
BULK Mode with NPCD


Have ran it, thanks for the update, I was not aware that we have this feature in NagiosXI. so tried from other sources to get PNP2Nagios.

That is a remnant from the one you installed, you do not access it that way in Nagios XI. The graphs show up next to the services or under services detail.

You should be able to remove the /etc/httpd/conf.d/pnp4nagios* files that it installed.
