    zabbix problems

    Hi

    I am really struggling with ZABBIX 1.4.2 on Ubuntu Desktop 8.04. I have gone through the entire install process following this method:

    http://www.zabbix.com/wiki/doku.php?...:ubuntuinstall

    After I did the install with NO errors I then go onto the frontend and do the entire login & registering process. Then I go to Zabbix status and it says "Zabbix server running NO" My friend did a ZABBIX install on CentOS. He had the exact same problem. i don't know which version of ZABBIX he has used. Neither of us followed the same installation process. When I did a ps -aux|grep zabbix-server or a ps -aux|grep zabbix_server I didn't get any response of a server running.

    I am at my wits end and really don't know what to do anymore. I need to get this up and working and would really appreciate any help to resolve this issue.

    The next problem I noticed is when I am on the frontend and I select the queue option and from the drop down list select details, I get a date that reads 01.01.1970 12:00:00. how can I fix that? Do I need to clear a log file, or do I need to edit a file?

    regards

    Check what "LogFile" is set to in /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf, and check the contents of the logfile. It will most properly hold information on why the server isn't starting.

      Do not hesitate to change the log level to DEBUG to see more information if not readable.
