RE: [hobbit] Need help. Hobbit installed, but web access fails.



I am running hobbit 4.2 on HPUX 11.11 - Web group other.

Xymon 4.3.0-0.beta2 - Web Group apache (default from Red Hat install
CDs).

 

The point is if the user running your web server does not have access,
then you will get permission problems.   You have to specify the correct
group for the web user at configuration time, so the install can get
permissions correct.

Hello Bruce,

What group-ID does your webserver use [nobody] ?
apache

xymon:x:50108:50108::/home/xymon:/bin/bash

thanks.

Bruce

Two arguing things in your email:

I think your trying http://192.168.1.50/xymon

you should be trying http://192.168.1.50/xymon/
