Dashboard: Server Running Status

[MikeBreton]

Can't seem to figure out why Server Running Parameter remains "No" even when both server (zabbix_server) and agentd (zabbix_agentd) are both running.

[richlv]

have you set server ip and port in frontend configuration file correctly ?

[MikeBreton]

Checked zabbix_server.conf port=10051 and ip is correct.

Now using 1.6.7 which solved my issue with small agentd daemons.
Thanks for your help.

Not sure I was clear about where the "No" appears:

Dashboard page, Status of ZABBIX panel
Parameter=ZABBIX Server, Value=No

[richlv]

no, not zabbix server config, but frontend config - zabbix.conf.php file, $ZBX_SERVER and $ZBX_SERVER_PORT variables

[MikeBreton]

Looks OK to me.

global $DB;

$DB["TYPE"] = "MYSQL";
$DB["SERVER"] = "localhost";
$DB["PORT"] = "0";
$DB["DATABASE"] = "zabbix";
$DB["USER"] = "root";
$DB["PASSWORD"] = "";

$ZBX_SERVER = "localhost";
$ZBX_SERVER_PORT = "10051";

$IMAGE_FORMAT_DEFAULT = IMAGE_FORMAT_PNG;

[richlv]

and if you telnet to port 10051 on localhost from the host where web frontend is installed ?

[MikeBreton]

# telnet localhost 10051
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused

# telnet 161.236.61.35 10051
Trying 161.236.61.35...
Connected to 161.236.61.35.
Escape character is '^]'.
^[}^H
Connection closed by foreign host.

changed
$ZBX_SERVER = "localhost"; to
$ZBX_SERVER = "161.236.61.35";

Now ZABBIX server is running = "Yes".

Thanks.

And did you restart Zabbix_server?

[MikeBreton]

Remember, after making changes to zabbix/conf/zabbix.conf.php I believe you must restart web server for changes to take effect.

that should not be required. refreshing the page would, though

[channelasian]

both apache2 and zabbix server restarted many times....

[richlv]

and can you telnet to zabbix server port 10051 from frontend machine ? (assuming you didn't change the default port)

[MrKen]
