I have loaded a CentOS 6.6 server and installed PBX-in-a-Flash (PiaF) VoIP
server on it.

I then installed xymon on the same server and allow it to use VoIP and
text-to-speech for certain urgent and or out-of-ban alerting.

This is a home project for me.


Before retiring is was monitoring 1,200 devices and using 'ssh' to move
requests to the PiaF server for this function.  I thought the next logical
progression would be to use the same server for both functions.


I am having the same problem that I have with just installing a CentOS
server with xymon on it.  I added the additional commands from the
installation to the end of the http configuration file but I cannot bring
up the xymon web page.


In this installation, the apache runs under 'asterisk/asterisk'.
Is there some directive that I am missing to allow apache to access the
xymon pages in the xymon installation  under the 'xymon/xymon'
permissions?

I have written many scripts that I cannot test out under the latest xymon
software release and make available to the community.

This is the same problem that I was having earlier and have not found the
solution to.

I also wanted to try allowing someone to be able to call into the VoIP
side
to retire an alert, etc.

Thanks,

Hi Tom,

Can you describe what's happening when you try to pull up the pages? I'd
most likely wager that it's a permissions issue either in xymon writing to
the directory in question, and/or apache reading back out of the dir. As
always, SELinux is a possibility as well.

If it's CentOS 6.x, then apache would be 2.2 by default, so the
authentication issues you'd had earlier wouldn't be the cause.


Are you seeing anything in your current xymongen or Apache log files that
looks unusual?
