Changing default URL used to access Nagios XI directly

Post by TBT »

The default URL used to access Nagios XI directly from an internal network is set to http://<ip>/nagiosxi/

After install, changing this URL to http://<ip>/ via the GUI still results in the Welcome page displayed when navigating to the IP in a browser:

1. The expected result is that when a visitor browse to the IP/URL that Welcome page is replaced with the login. Can this setting only be modified upon initial install?

2. I was thinking it's best to just use https://URL.com rather https://URL.com/nagiosxi/ because removing the /nagiosxi/ from this URL is one less click for users seeking to login. Any negative affects to doing this?

Hi there,

Not 100% sure what you have going on there. On all of my VMs when I put
http://192.168.23.81/nagiosxi/ in my browser I get redirected automatically to
http://192.168.23.81/nagiosxi/login.php ... f&noauth=1
which is the login page.

From a client could you do a:

Code: Select all

curl -v -L http://<ip>/nagiosxi/
It should result in the following:

Code: Select all

[root@gs-cent8-23-82 services]# curl -v -L http://192.168.23.84/nagiosxi

Re: Changing default URL used to access Nagios XI directly

Post by TBT »

I am trying to eliminate the Welcome page by removing the /nagiosxi/ from the Program URL, eg http://instance.domain.com

So in a browser a user will get the login page by visiting http://instance.domain.com, rather than a Welcome page or needing to navigate to http://instance.domain.com/nagiosxi/

Is the /nagiosxi/ required?

Hi

If you remove the /nagiosxi you should be taken to the Welcome page. With the /nagiosxi you'll go directly
to the login page. Seems like your installation is the exact opposite.

Watch (you'll have to rename the file url.txt ---> url.mp4):
url.txt
If you look at the "curl" command in my first response you can see the redirects. You can use the
same command on your system(s) to see what is going on.

If you look at /var/www/html/index.php you'll see it is the Welcome page
while/etc/httpd/conf.d/nagiosxi.conf contains

Code: Select all

Alias /nagiosxi "/usr/local/nagiosxi/html"
/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/index.php is the login page

Thanks

I am talking about changing the Systems Settings configuration.

I'd like users to be able to navigate to https://domain.com and get the login screen, not hit a welcome page. Does that make more sense?

Hi

Yes, I understand what you want to do. It should be doing it
by default. Look at the url.mp4 file, that is the behavior you want, correct?

Thanks

NO, that is incorrect. In your video you still have /nagiosxi in the URL.

As I've mentioned previously, I'd like users to be able to navigate to https://domain.com and get the login screen, this means not hit a welcome page or have "nagiosxi" in the URL.

Re: Changing default URL used to access Nagios XI directly

Hello @TBT

Smith is out of the office today, and I am responding on his behalf. I understand when users are hitting the FQDN.com they are presented with the Nagios default root index page.

This page is located: /var/www/html/index.php.

First, make a backup of this index by:

Code: Select all

cp /var/www/html/index.php /var/www/html/index.php.bak
The option to use a redirect on this page instead and that looks like this:

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<!-- redirect default (index.html) page to another page or subfolder -->
        <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://yournagiosxiserveraddresshere/nagiosxi" />
    <title>Nagios XI</title>
</head>
</html>
**On the url; where you see yournagiosserveraddresshere[/code] will need to be changed to your FQDN.com address for your Nagios XI server.

Thanks,
Perry

@Perry I was also under the impression this could be done within the XI GUI. Regardless, this is the correct answer, thank you.
