Can't Access Zabbix Frontend From Host Brower

[steedoflondon]

I'm unable to access the Zabbix frontend from my local host, from either FireFox or IE, through entering the following in the browser address bar:

http://192.168.0.0/16

I have installed Zabbix Appliance Version 2.4.1 on Virtual Box 4.3.20

In order to set-up the VM, I've followed the steps on http://www.zbxtutorials.org/2012/10/...lab-setup.html.

After logging into the zabbix Suse prompt, I get the following warning:
'Warning: IP address not obtained, Zabbix not accessible.'

I've also disabled the firewall, and added 'Allow from All' to /etc/apache2/conf.d/zabbix.conf, and then restarted Apache as per https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...rontend_access.

I've also tried the Network setting on http://blog.zabbix.com/connecting-to...rtualbox/1595/, and still get the error.

Not sure what I am missing.

In the "/etc/apache2/conf.d/Zabbix.conf" file insert the IP range that you want access to as seen below: Notice the lines 172.0.0.0/8 I inserted in mine...

<Directory "/usr/share/zabbix/">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
<IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
# Apache 2.4
Require all granted
Order allow,deny
Allow from 127.0.0.1
Allow from 192.168.0.0/16
Allow from 10.0.0.0/8
Allow from 172.0.0.0/8
Allow from ::1
</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
# Apache 2.2
Order allow,deny
Allow from 127.0.0.1
Allow from 192.168.0.0/16
Allow from 10.0.0.0/8
Allow from 172.0.0.0/8
Allow from ::1
</IfModule>
</Directory>

Many thanks hrswift.

I finally managed to get it to work through modifying my /etc/apache2/conf.d/Zabbix.conf as follows:


<Directory "/usr/share/zabbix/">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
<IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
# Apache 2.4
#Require all granted
#Order allow,deny
Allow from All
Allow from 127.0.0.1
Allow from 192.168.0.0/16
Allow from 10.0.0.0/8
Allow from 172.0.0.0/8
Allow from ::1
</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
# Apache 2.2
#Order allow,deny
Allow from All
Allow from 127.0.0.1
Allow from 192.168.0.0/16
Allow from 10.0.0.0/8
Allow from 172.0.0.0/8
Allow from ::1
</IfModule>
</Directory>

Warning: IP address not obtained, Zabbix not accessible

Hello,

I have the same issue and was able to fix it.

I don't know why but the Zabbix appliance (2.4) was released with fixed IP setting (blank) and this is why it can't get an IP from your DHCP server.

To fix the issue, log in as root, type "yast", Networking Devices, Network Settings
Select your Ethernet controller and edit it to use DHCP - You can also assign a static IP here.

Quit yast
Run ifup "your ethernet interface" - ifup ens33
Zabbix should be able to get an IP from your DHCP server now.
Run ifconfig to see your IP.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Khang


Update: I just tried another Zabbix appliance today and looks like this one could obtain DHCP IP no problem. However, if you are having problem, you can still run "yast" to fix it. (Change "network setup method to Traditional with ifup")

Warning: IP address not obtained, Zabbix not accessible

I'm having the same issue. But my windows host is in a static IP VLAN. So I have set a static IP on Zabbix appliance 2.2. I tried VMplayer and Virtual box on a Windows Server 2008 64 bit. Can you help? Thanks in advance.

I resolved issue by entering the correct subnet address in the zabbix server.conf
