Problems During installation of Zabbix

[Umair]

The configuration has been a big Mess!!

I have been getting the follwoing problems.

I am running Red Fat Linux, Fedora.
I installed version 1.1.6 and then moved to verison 1.3.2 when the earlier did not work.

But both the versions have the same problems.
Here are the problems that i am facing:

1). After the configuration, when i start up the Zabbis server and the client agent.
I start the Webn Browser to point to the Zabbix URL :

http://localhost:8080/zabbix

I am redirected to the main login page and on the header of the page, i see the follownig error :

Error in query [select * from rights where userid=2] [Unknown column 'userid' in 'where clause']

2). According to the manual for installation, after setting up the client and the server, i should be starting up the web interface, and shoudl point to the Zabbix URL.
but which URL is it talking about ?
if its talking about this URL,
http://localhost:8080/zabbix
but using this, the login page opens.

I dont know the URL of the liscene and configuration page.
Please help me with that one also.

Right off the bat, I have to ask, did you create the database schema? If you had this issue in 1.1.6, I suspect you did not.

2). According to the manual for installation, after setting up the client and the server, i should be starting up the web interface, and shoudl point to the Zabbix URL.

The fact that you are getting this page, after upgrading to 1.3.2, tells me that you did not install the UI correctly. The 1.3.2 UI should take you directly to configuration page.

Based on the two issues you are having, I would recommend flushing the Zabbix DB, and the wiping the UI. Then re-create the database, following the directions in the manual. Once that is complete, re-install the UI.

Please use 1.1.6 first, and do not update to 1.3 until you have 1.1.6 working. The reason for this is that 1.3 is a development branch, as such it is much harder to get it running unless you have an idea how Zabbix works before you attempt to use it.
