I have a proxy server on a private network, which forwards to the main server, a devel server, and itself (server on port 1985).

I ran the bbcmd .../build/Xymon-430.sh script then did a make install.

It was having trouble with the client, but I found that the xymonclient.cfg had put in port 1985, and only its own ip address. I fixed that, and the primary and devel servers are pretty much happy with it.

However, the server on the proxy will not update its web pages. I did update the httpd config file, that's not the issue.

I found in /var/log/Xymon/bb-display.log, the following:

2011-08-18 11:01:19 xymond status-board not available, code 0
2011-08-18 11:01:19 Failed to load current Xymon status, aborting page-update

And I can't find anything to explain it. Can someone help?

The particulars are CentOS 5.6 inside VMWare. It worked flawlessly in 4.2.3.  Do you need the tasks.cfg file?

I have a proxy server on a private network, which forwards to the
main
server, a devel server, and itself (server on port 1985).

However, the server on the proxy will not update its web pages. I did
update the httpd config file, that's not the issue.

I found in /var/log/Xymon/bb-display.log, the following:

2011-08-18 11:01:19 xymond status-board not available, code 0
2011-08-18 11:01:19 Failed to load current Xymon status, aborting
page-
update

And I can't find anything to explain it. Can someone help?

The particulars are CentOS 5.6 inside VMWare. It worked flawlessly in
4.2.3.  Do you need the tasks.cfg file?
