Two arguing things in your email:


Alias /xymon/  "/home/xymon/server/www/"

I think your trying http://192.168.1.50/xymon

you should be trying http://192.168.1.50/xymon/

Dear All,

I installed xymon on my redhat linux. The installation is successful, but
the web access failed.

And,

the httpd log shows:
