Unable to start zabbix proxy

[andaks]

Hello there,

i've been using zabbix server since version 1.8. Now i'm running zabbix v2.2.2 on Ubuntu 13.10.

Lately I decide to create one zabbix proxy on other branch to connect with current zabbix server.

However, after i complete install from source, i'm unable to start the zabbix proxy. Even i check at log dir, no log has been created.

I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 with zabbix source V2.2.3. Here is the command i used.

./configure --enable-proxy --with-mysql --enable-agent --enable-ipv6 --with-net-snmp --with-libcurl

I start zabbix-proxy using below command:

 service zabbix-proxy start

and the respond is:

zabbix-proxy stop/waiting

I have configured all the configuration setting and pointing to mysql database.

Hope experts can help me.

Have you checked the start script to make sure the path is correct?

I personally don't use the start/stop scripts. Try starting it manually with something like this, but with your paths, of course:

/usr/local/sbin/zabbix_proxy -c /usr/local/etc/zabbix_proxy.conf

One more (helpful) thing: change Debuglevel=4 in /etc/zabbix/zabbix_proxy.cfg before starting the Zabbix Proxy.
And then check /var/log/zabbix/zabbix_proxy.log to see any suspicious message.
