Put user 'nobody' in the same group as the hobbit/xymon-user (typically 'hobbit'), that will help a lot in file-access.
And to make sure issue command ' cd /local/xymon; chmod -R g+r * '
 
Alternatively (but not recommended) make all files in hobbit-hierarchy worldreadable ( cd /local/xymon; chmod -R o+r * )

Hi all!
I have just installed a xymon server, but don't get the apache config correct.
I have added a directory and an alias in httpd.conf:
Alias /xymon/ "/local/xymon/server/www"
<Directory "/local/xymon/server/www">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes MultiViews
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
 
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /xymon-cgi/ "/local/xymon/cgi-bin/"
<directory "/local/xymon/cgi-bin">
    AllowOverride None
    Options ExecCGI Includes
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
 
At first I got error messages with no access towards http://myserver/xymon <http://myserver/xymon> , but after adjusting filsystem rights I instead get a directory listing.
Index of /xymon

If I try to select index.html (or bb.html) or typing the filename in the url, I get an 404 error:
 
Not Found
 
The requested URL /xymon/index.html was not found on this server.
 
 
Any suggestions?
