Web interface port, other than 80

[vinzz]

Is it possible to alter the web gui's port from 80, to say, 8008 ?

[vinzz]

Of course we can edit apache's ports.conf: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-a...ort-ipbinding/

But I want to disable port 80 only for Zabbix altogether. All other sites must keep listening on port 80. Anyone?

You can add 8008 to the ports.conf and apache will listen on both ports.

Your virtualhost setup would look something like:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.yourothersite.com:80


<VirtualHost *:8008>
ServerName zabbix.yourdomain.com:8008

hi,

ive tried the link and as follows but says when you restart apache2 there is a [warn] and it wont work.

must be some other config file or something that needs changing?

[Bennie]

can you post the warning please.

[markclark]

Error is below.

[warn] NameVirtualHost *.8008 has no VirtualHosts

If i leave the NameVirtualHost as *:80 as default and add the listening port of 8008 then nothing works at all including the Zabbix URL.

Marc,

create a configfile something like this

NameVirtualHost *:8008
Listen 8008

<VirtualHost *:8008>
    ServerName yourfqdnhere

    DocumentRoot <fullpathtodir>

    <Directory fullpathtodir >
        AllowOverride All
        Options +FollowSymLinks
    </Directory>

    ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/zbx-error.log
    CustomLog /var/log/apache2/zbx-access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

This should work, leave the ports.conf file alone and arrange it in your sites definitions. Make sure its last in the list to load for apache

thanks for the response. sorry for my lack of understanding in Ubuntu but when you suggest make a config file, is there any specific way i should do this or directory?

thanks.
