I am running Xymon-4.3.0-0.beta2 on CentOS 5.3.

 
When I login to Administration à  Edit Critical Systems and enter the following values:

                                HOST:  Linksys-118

                                TEST:   conn

                                I fill in 'Resolver group:' and 'Instructions:'

                                Then click 'Update record' button

 
                On my old system the line 'Last update by:' is updated.

                On my new system, nothing changes and no entry is created when you search for it.

 
                Do I have permissions incorrect on some file?  Where are these entries stored?

 
Thanks,

The user your web server runs as needs to have write access to the hobbit-
nkview.cfg file.

Thanks Buchan
I knew it was either a permissions or ownership problem.
This is just another time where the installation setup 'nobody' instead of 'apache' as the group ownership.
