A friendly suggestion

[XKaliber]

Might I kindly suggest that perhaps with your next release, you might want to try testing the VMWare appliance before releasing it. It is not functional as-is, as is clearly indicated upon the first attempted access of the Web GUI.

"Constant ZBX_PAGE_NO_MENU already defined [setup.php:31] ";states ZABBIX is not running

I know the VMWare appliance is obviously not your primary release channel, which is why this was likely overlooked...

Thanks for all that you do, and for all your contributions to the Open Source community!

interesting. given that i personally tested vmware appliance (and am running it right now ), i can say that it definitely did not pop up during the testing. also, i suspected that this might happen only if the zabbix server isn't running, but i don't get any errors even then.

what's the url you see when this error message appears ?

fixed

I powered on the appliance to get the url for you, but it was working. I had a static IP assigned. I followed the instructions here

http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/...tion/appliance

which is not for 2.0.

6.1.2 Using a static IP address

By default the appliance uses DHCP to obtain IP address. To specify a static IP address:

Log in as root user;
Open file /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 in your favourite editor;
Set BOOTPROTO variable to static;
Set IPADDR, NETMASK and any other parameters as required for your network;
Create file /etc/sysconfig/network/routes. For the default route, use default 192.168.1.1 - - (replacing with your gateway address).
Run the command rcnetwork restart.

To configure DNS, add nameserver entries in /etc/resolv.conf, specifying each nameserver on its own line: nameserver 192.168.1.2.

Alternatively, just use yast configuration utility to update network settings.

I didn't do any dns configuration. then i went to <my ip> and got the error message above. Then I complained and the Gods made me look stupid by making the solution as simple as restarting the appliance. Hopefully, this can contribute in some way! I posted my solution to a thread someone else had started on the issue. Thank you for your assistance.

well, there apparently is some issue, as you're not the only one experiencing this - it just requires some set of circumstances to bring out. i guess i'll have to try and reproduce it before 2.0.1 appliance can come out
