Live CD Zabbix, unreachable frontend access

[Kenshiro]

Hi all,

By the way, sorry for my bad english.

I would test Zabbix monitoring server with the Live CD on an HP Proliant G4 360.

I install it with yast but i don't access to the frontend web zabbix server with my specified IP adress 172.17.X.X from another computer on the same class IP.

I specified the IP to Hosts, Http and servername. I suspend the Susefirewall but i don't succeded to go to zabbix web.

How can acesss to the frontend web access ?

Thank you for your help

what happens when you try to access the frontend ? do you get apache page, or nothing at all ? can you telnet to port 80 from your system ?

[Kenshiro]

Yes i can reach the port 80 with the command telnet , no problem but i get the "object not found" at the page (http://X.X.X.X/zabbix) :

Error 404

X.X.X.X
Tue Aug 2 16:06:03 2011
Apache/2.2.15 (Linux/SUSE)

I put the IP adress in Yast configuration with Http, servername, etcc and at last i deactivate the firewall but nothing happen, the same error page.

Finally, i don't see the classic apache page. In my Directory, i didn't see zabbix script to launch in /usr/local

Try this from the manual:
http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/...tion/appliance
Section 6.3.
I think you need to open for your ip subnet - in the apache server.

Thank you for your answer but i put my adress same at this in zabbix.conf :



# please read how to enable zabbix frontend in
# /usr/share/doc/packages/zabbix-phpfrontend/README.SuSE
<IfDefine ZABBIX>
Alias /zabbix "/usr/share/zabbix/"
RedirectMatch ^/$ /zabbix
<Directory "/usr/share/zabbix/">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from X.X.X.X
Allow from 127.0.0.1
Allow from 192.168.0.0/16
Allow from 10.0.0.0/8
Allow from ::1
</Directory>
</IfDefine>


But nothing happen after restarting apache (The readme to phpfrontend do'nt exist in the package directory)

Sorry, then I do not know what is wrong in your environment ...

For testing I mostly use the virtual appliances from richlv:
http://susegallery.com/a/MdKfmk/zabb...?version=1.8.5.
Running them with a vmware player – works every time for me.

Live CD Zabbix, unreachable frontend access

I know what you have done.......
The "Yast" has changed apache2 conf completely.
Run "Yast" again and go to "NW Services -> HTTP Server -> Main Host"

Use "Tab" Carefully to navigate and enter the details to its original
==================
Directory: "/usr/share/zabbix"
Doc Root: "/usr/share/zabbix"
==================
Then just save all this

Note: http://10.10.10.10/ should take you to zabbix. Don't use "/zabbix/" as it doesn't work ok...

Live CD Zabbix, unreachable frontend access

We have edited Apache with Yast to make below changes. So Apache here directs all the requests to inside of the Directory "zabbix" and not to "share" as share directory is having many other sub directory, it is advisable to avoid redirection to "share" thus "http://10.10.10.10/" goes to "zabbix" and "http://10.10.10.10/zabbix/" request goes to "http://10.10.10.10/zabbix/zabbix/" which simply doesn't exist.
==================
Directory: "/usr/share/zabbix"
Doc Root: "/usr/share/zabbix"

access front end fromt internet

Hi all,
i am a newbie in the world of zabbix and linux in general. Just a question. I have configured zabbix with a vmware virtual machine but i can't reach zabbix front end from outside my lan.

In dept,
if I make http://192.168.X.X i reach my zabbix web server but
if I make http://78.89.23.4 (that is my public ip address) i can't reach it (obviously in this case I'am physically in another lan).

I configure my modem/router to redirect all incoming request to port 80 to the zabbix server and in fact the page browser show me is Zabbix OpenSuse Access Denied!

So vmware is reached by the request ; but should be something that block me.
what is it??
