zabbix 6 PROXY cannot start

[yusewy]

hi guys,

I have setup zabbix 6 proxy on centos8, when I start the proxy service, the log shows that "cannot connect to RTC service: Cannot connect to service "rtc": [13] Permission denied.", I have searched on google, but no any information about this, can someone help me on this issue? Thanks in advance!

I am experiencing the same issues. The zabbix 6 documentation does not explaing Proxy configuration(s) very well, at all, imo

Sorry to cross-post, but in my post (https://www.zabbix.com/forum/zabbix-...rsion-of-proxy) I am looking for the 6.0 proxy software, and can't find it in the downloads section on Zabbix's website. Is there a better place to find it?

TIA,

Dave

why you don't run "yum install zabbix-proxy-mysql" to install proxy?

I have created https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBX-20708 to hopefully help escalate this issue. rtc is not a package/service that is include within RHEL8 that I am aware of. The time daemon is "chronyd", and possibly ntpdate depending on customer preference. It appears "rtc" is an old dependency that was need in older versions of zabbix from my digging, but not sure here. This instance of RHEL8 I am testing with is pretty vanilla - clean install, nothing special, although is running in AWS (EC2) - so not sure if that is creating any issues.
