ERROR: No permissions !

[gmorey2]

Yesterday I was able to successfully complete the 'Frontend installation wizard' and then login with the 'admin' account and add a node. Today no matter what web page I attempt to go to I get ERROR: No permissions !

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/zabbix164/queue.php

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/zabbix164/instal.php

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/zabbix164/setup.php etc...

I've changed nothing since yesterday. I just came in to see if I could get Zabbix to monitor a process. Where must I establish these permissions? Why could I successfully navigate to a zabbix web page one day nad not the next? Please help me out my manager expects results.

Make some screens, may be we could help you by getting some info from those screens.

Have you double checked the permissions on the Zabbix "html-docs" to make sure everything is readable by your Apache (or other web server) user? I don't know why they would work one day but not the other.

Are you trying to go to the address " http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/zabbix164/queue.php " directly instead of " http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/zabbix164/ "? Maybe the php files aren't redirecting you to the login page.

J, I can get to the login screen via 'http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/zabbix164/' and successfuly login. Should I get redirected to the the Zabbix login screen whenever directly referencing a PHP?

[jroberson]

Do you still get permission errors after you login on that page? You may also try clearing your browser cache if it still gives you problems.

I'm not sure if the php files redirect you to the login screen. I just assumed that they would as that seems like a logical feature. I always go to the root of the web first anyway.

Response to jroberson

No I can successfully login. The question that has me confused is one day I can directly reference a PFP with the address and successfully perform the frontend installation and the next day I get permission errors when referencing the same PHP. Perhaps once I successfully perform the frontend installation new rules kicked in.

[jroberson]

I know the installation wizard does modify the php config file (if writable) to setup the Zabbix frontend. It might do some other things at the same time. I'm not quite as familiar with that portion of Zabbix. If needed, you can rerun the installation wizard by going to "Administration -> Installation" from the frontend.

Your login may have expired by the time you direct-check that PHP the next day.

Go to Administration --> Users and modify the settings for your account. Enable auto-login. I also change that nasty 60 second refresh to something more manageable like 600 seconds.
