[kingpig]

OS : CentOS - 4.3
kernel : 2.6.x
apache : 2.2.3
php : 5.1.4
mysql : 5.0.22
net-snmp : net-snmp-5.2.2-1.EL4.i386.rpm
zabbix : 1.1.1

install ==========

1) Create the ZABBIX database & adduser zabbix
adduser zabbix
create database zabbix;
cat create/mysql/schema.sql | mysql –uroot -p zabbix
cat create/data/data.sql | mysql -uroot -p zabbix

2) Configure and compile the source code for your system
./configure --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-net-snmp

3) Make and install everything
make install

4) Configure /etc/services
zabbix_agent 10050/tcp
zabbix_trap 10051/tcp

5) Modify default settings in configuration files
mkdir -p /etc/zabbix
cp /opt/zabbix/misc/conf/* /etc/zabbix
modify zabbix_server

6) START
/usr/local/bin/zabbix_server start
but
File [/var/tmp/zabbix_server.pid] exists. Is this process already running ?

so
root# killall zabbix
zabbix: no process killed

I can't start zabbix_server..

Help me..

you killed all the processes?

[AlexWhite]

run command

#ps ax|grep zabbix
#killall zabbix_server

Also, doublecheck to make sure the .pid isn't running. You'll be prompted with the path to the pid if it is.

i already run command

run command

#ps ax|grep zabbix
#killall zabbix_server

i already run command

but zabbix not runnig...

so I see this message

"zabbix_server: no process killed"

Did my having done install make a mistake?

[Villain]

if the server's not running, go to the directory where you installed Zabbix (i.e. /usr/local/zabbix/bin) and run ./zabbix_server

This should get it going. If it doesn't, try recompiling it, maybe there was a mistake in there, check your conf file to make sure it's setup correctly, and verify that you have your database setup properly.

my config

/etc/zabbix/zabbix_server
=============================
DBHost=localhost

# Database name

DBName=zabbix

# Database user

DBUser=root

# Database password
# Comment this line if no password used

DBPassword=0000

# Connect to MySQL using Unix socket?

DBSocket=/var/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock
=================================
I mistake?

I will try recompilling zabiix

I will use compile option
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/zabbix --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-net-snmp

It's right?

Also I made dir /etc/zabbix

Should I make this dir?
