Xymon on Ubuntu 24.04

Good day

I please need guidance to configure xymon on Ubuntu 24.04

I installed xymon from the default apt repository.

It’s a VM running in Azure and installed using the repo that was setup for a Ubuntu vem on azure.

Also changed the repo to the default mirrors.kernel.org and installed xymon from there.

# apt-cache policy xymon

xymon:

  Installed: 4.3.30-2build3

  Candidate: 4.3.30-2build3

  Version table:

*** 4.3.30-2build3 500

        500 https://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu noble/universe amd64 Packages

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Xymon does start and generates the pages which I can view but is missing the client tests (disk, cpu, memory etc..), and the rrd graphs

Confirm port 1984 is listening

I see a bug was also recently reported here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xymon/+bug/2078638

I see similar entries in the xymon {clientdata.log, rrd-status.log alert.log } files, repeating.

This is a fresh install and the only change I made in xymonserver.cfg are:

XYMONSERVERIP=”server ip”

Firewall disabled

Apparmor disabled

Thank you.
