Re: [Nagios-users] Missing hosts.cfg, hostsgroups.cfg, timperiods.cfg....

[Edward F. <ef...@ne...>]

I fell into the same trap. The install package installs minimal.cfg but no
other ones. 

 

If you create the necessary cfg files by hand it will work, also uncomment
the necessary files in nagios.cfg when they are created. I had to play with
it a bit to get it to work but now it works with all the files not just
minimal.cfg

Subject: [Nagios-users] Missing hosts.cfg,
hostsgroups.cfg,timperiods.cfg....

 

First let me beg forgiveness - I am not a linux admin, I barely can navagate
my way around linux.  

 

I have successfully installed nagios 2.2 and apache web server.  I have the
app running and get to a web page via http://mymachinename/nagios and have
access the the CGI's and I am monitoring localhost.  I believe I'm doing
this using my minimal.cfg file that is active from nagios.cfg  I see all my
other .cfg files commented out in nagios.cfg, but the sample .cfg's for
hosts and hostsgroups and some others aren't anywhere?  

 

I searched find / -name hosts*  And looked in /usr/local/nagios/etc  Anyway,
thought i might have missed something so i tried installing again with
./configure, make all, make install, make install-init, make
install-commandmode, make install-config 

 

The make install-config loads the samples I believe and none of the hosts
samples are there.  Can anyone help me out here?
