zabbix-nginx-conf and zabbix-apache-conf missing

[Casus]

Hi Everyone,

Trying to do a new install from packages on Ubuntu 20.04, following the steps on the install site, and the zabbix-nginx-conf and zabbix-apache-conf files cannot be found. Yes, the Zabbix repo has been installed and the other zabbix packages are installed.

root@zabbix:~# apt search zabbix-apache-conf

I just found the same problem. However, one of the other packages seems to put the config files into /etc/apache2/conf-available so I think those packages are now redundant, but not 100% sure.

Cannot reproduce. Here's what I did. On Ubuntu 20, 5.0:

As you can see, in both cases the packages are there. Even installing it works:

Thanks for the prompt feedback dimir. It was a schoolboy error. My zabbix repo was disabled as part of a release upgrade and thus I was using the distro repo and not the zabbix one.

Oh, got it. That's a common one. :-)
