Zabbix Url

[dman]

The install instructions on section 2.4.5 say to point your browser to the zabbix url... but what is the default? I tried http://localhost, http://localhost:10051 i tried ~zabbix and nothing!!

[ZBox]

hi dman,

try http://your-server-IP/zabbix

Z

[dman]

tried!

I tried it. I'm trying to get this up to demo to management... Any other ideas?

[dantheman]

Did you put the web frontend of zabbix in a folder served out by your webserver?.. and is your webserver running on that box?

[GateKeeper]

Just must say: insturctions on setting up web-server are beyond the zabbix installation manual.

You must read attentively the instructions of your desired web-server software (apache or nginx or MS IIS, etc.) and follow it to set web frontend of zabbix up.

[dman]

thanks

dantheman, in the zabbix.tar.gz, what folder structure needs to be added to the apache config?

[dantheman]

frontends/php

and then inside of that has a folder "include" with a file db.inc.php that probably will need to be edited with your database specific info so that the frontend can get to the database.

[dman]

Thanks...

Did I miss this in the install instructions?

here is the latest error:

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_pconnect() in /var/www/html/include/db.inc.php on line 38

in the doc's on zabbix's website.. there is a seperate section from the zabbix server install, it's called zabbix web interface install..

http://www.zabbix.com/manual/v1.1/in...source_web.php

As far as the error, it sounds like you don't have the php-mysql module installed on your webserver (I'm assuming your using apache..?) get that installed and you should be another step closer.. hopefully all up and running.

Good Luck.

Thanks Dan... Were running RHEL 4 and I dont see an RPM from RedHat for php-mysql or php4-mysql. Any other suggestions?

[dantheman]

I found this on PHP's website referring to Mysql.. so depending on your version of PHP you'll do one of the two things..


Installation on Linux Systems

PHP 4

The option --with-mysql is enabled by default. This default behavior may be disabled with the --without-mysql configure option. If MySQL is enabled without specifying the path to the MySQL install DIR, PHP will use the bundled MySQL client libraries.

Users who run other applications that use MySQL (for example, auth-mysql) should not use the bundled library, but rather specify the path to MySQL's install directory, like so: --with-mysql=/path/to/mysql. This will force PHP to use the client libraries installed by MySQL, thus avoiding any conflicts.


PHP 5+

MySQL is not enabled by default, nor is the MySQL library bundled with PHP. Read this FAQ for details on why. Use the --with-mysql[=DIR] configure option to include MySQL support. You can download headers and libraries from MySQL.
