Hi Everyone,
I am new to Zabbix, my instance was working fine after installing it 2 weeks ago until this morning. I keep getting an error saying "Zabbix server is not running" , i did look up forums and other posts on how to solve it.
Everyone was recommending to increase the CacheSize in the /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf file which i did, i have increased it from 8M to 1G.
The server is still not running even after restarting the service multiple times along with the VM and have also increased the other parameters like VMwareCacheSize, TrendCacheSize etc. which did not help my cause.
I feel like am missing something. Any help is appreciated.
