Web setup in 1.3.2 error at the end

[sbadger]

I was able to make it all the way to the end of the web frontend setup without any problems doing a virgin install of Zabbix 1.3.2 on my test box (Fedora Core 5) util this one poped up:

* fopen(/var/www/html/conf/zabbix.conf.php) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied[/var/www/html/include/setup.inc.php:414]


It appears at the bottom of the screen and lets me click past it, but something fails to take the frontend out the setup mode and into working mode. Any ideas on what I may be missing?

Check permissions of *.php files. Apache must have read access to the files.

World readable with a 644 permision.

Try to 'su - apache_user' and do 'less /var/www/html/include/setup.inc.php' to check if everything is fine.

I needed to give the apache user a shell and then I was able to look at the setup.in.php file. Here is the output from tail:

[root@lin6410 html]# su - apache
This account is currently not available.
[root@lin6410 html]# su - apache
-bash-3.1$ less /var/www/html/include/setup.inc.php
-bash-3.1$ tail /var/www/html/include/setup.inc.php
$DB_SERVER      = "'.$this->GetConfig('DB_SERVER'       ,'uncnown').'";
$DB_DATABASE    = "'.$this->GetConfig('DB_DATABASE'     ,'uncnown').'";
$DB_USER        = "'.$this->GetConfig('DB_USER'         ,'uncnown').'";
$DB_PASSWORD    = "'.$this->GetConfig('DB_PASSWORD'     ,'').'";

$IMAGE_FORMAT_DEFAULT   = IMAGE_FORMAT_PNG;
?>';
                }
        }
?>
-bash-3.1$

It was already discussed somewhere elase. Something related to advanced security features if PHP (?) or a third party application.

Permissions Problems - check selinux

Had a whole bunch of permissions issues on step 7. Install. 'chmod -R 777 /var/www/html/zabbix' did nothing for me, but 'setenforce 0' as root to temporarily turn selinux off did; step 7. Install gave me a 'Configuration file: Ok'. Forgot how to modify the selinux config files, but I seem to remember it wasn't too hard - will check the FAQs later.
