Dear All,

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

Here is information:

In your web browser did you use the URL: http://webserver/xymon/ (notice the trailing slash character)?

Yeah.
But according to apache error_log,
It seems that it wants to access /var/www/html/xymon
Because in the error_log, there is:
[Fri Jan 29 16:40:39 2010] [error] [client 192.168.71.55] File does not

If I use browser to access http://*.*.*.*/xymon,
it will result in another new same line.

Hello,

Your httpd.log shows "File does not exist: /var/www/html/xymon" although you
show you have "Alias /xymon/  /home/xymon/server/www/". This behavior says
to me that the httpd.conf excerpt has not been pasted to the corresponding
virtual host, thus giving you a "File does not exist".

Can you please check that you have that conf added to the correct virtual
host?

The redhat linux which I am using now was used by anther guy before.
He setup a php website in /var/www/html.
So I guess I may need to revise something in apache config?

Yeah.
But according to apache error_log,
It seems that it wants to access /var/www/html/xymon
Because in the error_log, there is:
[Fri Jan 29 16:40:39 2010] [error] [client 192.168.71.55] File does not

If I use browser to access http://*.*.*.*/xymon,
it will result in another new same line.

I'd add it to the httpd.conf to be certain.

Ahhaaaa! :)

Try grepping your way through your configs in order to find where that
previous Alias is declared and remove it. Something like this:

grep -E -r "Alias.*xymon" /etc/httpd

You'll see all the files that match and the actual matches so you'll know
what to remove.

Or maybe even grep for "/var/www/xymon" in there, I have a good feeling that
you'll find where the problem is.

Thank you guys for your warmful help.

I did put the conf content into httpd.conf
and, also rm conf.d/hobbit-apache.conf

But, it still doesn't work. there is no change.

Try grepping your way through your configs in order to find where that
previous Alias is declared and remove it. Something like this:

grep -E -r "Alias.*xymon" /etc/httpd

You'll see all the files that match and the actual matches so you'll know
what to remove.

Or maybe even grep for "/var/www/xymon" in there, I have a good feeling
that you'll find where the problem is.

I am running hobbit 4.2 on HPUX 11.11 - Web group other.

Xymon 4.3.0-0.beta2 - Web Group apache (default from Red Hat install
CDs).

 
The point is if the user running your web server does not have access,
then you will get permission problems.   You have to specify the correct
group for the web user at configuration time, so the install can get
permissions correct.

Hello Bruce,

What group-ID does your webserver use [nobody] ?
apache

xymon:x:50108:50108::/home/xymon:/bin/bash

thanks.

I think your trying http://192.168.1.50/xymon

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