Hi Jeremy
The reason I am using /opt/xymon is because I thought it would be a good
idea to keep everything related to xymon inside
/opt so that I will not have to look into different directories when I am
looking for any xymon files.
This is a good reason to put the _files_ into /opt/xymon/. But URL
part of the alias/scriptalias is different. For instance, you have
this in your ScriptAlias line:
ScriptAlias /opt/xymon/xymon-cgi/ "/opt/xymon/cgi-bin/"
This means the URL to access the CGI scripts would be
http://servername/opt/xymon/xymon-cgi/scriptname. The "/opt/xymon"
part is not necessary, and I suspect that links within Xymon will not
use it. Instead, you probably need to have this:
ScriptAlias /xymon-cgi/ "/opt/xymon/cgi-bin/"
In that way, the browser knows the URL path as /xymon-cgi/ but Apache
translates this to /opt/xymon/cgi-bin/.
Please see the outputs below. I excluded the commented lines that contained
the words 'include' and 'Alias' from the outputs.
Thanks, the comments wouldn't help.
The grep output shows no "Alias /xymon/". The first non-comment line
in my xymon-apache.conf file defines this. I would imagine yours
should have:
Alias /xymon/ "/opt/xymon/www/"
Include conf.d/*.conf
This confirms that any .conf file inside the conf.d directory will
automatically get included in the config when Apache reloads. Good.
I will try what you suggested. I will remove the content of
xymon-apache.conf from httpd.cond and then I will add
an 'include' line in httpd.conf like this:
Include /opt/xymon/server/etc/xymon-apache.conf
No, don't add the include directive. After removing the configuration
entries from httpd.conf, simply copy the file into conf.d. For
example:
cp /opt/xymon/server/etc/xymon-apache.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/
Don't forget to restart Apache.
Cheers
Jeremy
