RE: [hobbit] apache

[<oyvind.bjorge (at) telenor.com>]

Thank you for the suggstion, but it don't seems to be it.
I have tried to add both user nobody and the apache user to the xymon group.
I have given the group both x and r to the files.
The earlier problem I had was missing x to an above directory.
If I su - to apache it is alowed to read the files.

Any other suggestions?

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, 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?
