invalid Write test on settings directory (config/): failed

[Victor Braga]

Hey guys, first time posting here. When I try and install NagiosQL based on the instructions found here:
https://www.linuxhelp.com/how-to-install-nagiosql-on-centos

I was able to get everything to check mark green except for:

SSH2: NOT AVAILABLE (Could be loaded. Please add in php.ini)
is this required?

and

Write test on settings directory (config/): failed

I tried doing google searches on this and all I found was to chmod 777 /var/www/nagiosql
Some other people asking it seem to not get an answer either. Maybe they figured it out?

To me it looks like /var/www/nagiosql is not a directory so I tried also creating a directory for nagiosql and putting everything in it. I created a config file and still no luck.

Let me know if theres anything i need to do to get past this point. Thanks guys!

There is a detailed installation guide that should answer most questions:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/nagiosql/files/nagiosql/Documentation/

SSH2 is only required, if you plan to include a remote Nagios installation which is accessible via ssh. If the nagios installation is installed on the same system as NagiosQL, SSH2 is not required.

Thanks Martin, I'll give those instructions ago.
