First, are you sure the server is effectively well running ?

[safaa]

Try :
ps -ef | grep zabbix

And say me what it displays to you.

[safaa]

It displays to me :

root@Monit-ZX:~# ps -ef | grep zabbix
root      3884  8210  0 13:00 pts/1    00:00:00 grep zabbix

thanks so much for your time.

but when I open /var/log/zabbix-server/zabbix_server.log ,it displays to me :

root@Monit-ZX:~# ps -ef | grep zabbix
root      3884  8210  0 13:00 pts/1    00:00:00 grep zabbix
root      7198     1  0 Jul27 ?        00:00:00 gedit /var/log/zabbix-server/zabbix_server.log

zabbix_server is definately not running (nor is the agent). What happens when you try to start it? Whats in the log?

[Kai-Kai]

As said swaterhouse, server is NOT running... so it's normal it's displayed on the dashboard.

Run the server and the agent.

Login as zabbix user (su - zabbix), and then, run Zabbix server (and zabbix agent if you installed it).

/path/to/your/zabbix/zabbix_server -c /path/to/your/config/zabbix_server.conf

And if needed :
/path/to/your/zabbix/zabbix_agentd -c /path/to/your/config/zabbix_agentd.conf

If you type ps -ef | grep zabbix, you should see you're softwares.


Ps : personnal advice, if you really have no bases on linux / unix systems, you should begin learning bases first of all. It would help you to better understand where are your problems.

I did what you tell me :

root@Monit-ZX:~# /etc/init.d/zabbix-server -c /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf
Usage: /etc/init.d/zabbix_server {start|stop|restart|force-reload}

root@Monit-ZX:~# su - zabbix
Pas de répertoire, connexion avec HOME=/
