Package: nagvis Version: 1:1.4.6-1.1 Severity: important After installing nagvis by apt-get install nagvis, the url http://ip-address/nagvis does not work.
In order to get it working, you need to edit several files: /etc/default/ndoutils set ENABLE_NDOUTILS=1 remove # in front of SOCKET=.. /etc/nagios3/nagios.cfg add line broker_module=/usr/lib/ndoutils/ndomod-mysql-3x.o config_file=/etc/nagios3/ndomod.cfg restart ndoutils and nagios3 services /etc/nagvis/nagvis.ini.php under the section [backend_ndomy_1] you need to specify dbname, dbuser and dbpass, even though it's stored under /etc/dbconfig-common/ndoutils-mysql.conf and there is a file called /etc/dbconfig-common/nagvis.conf in which there is nothing configured. after that http://ip-address/nagvis works fine. automatically adding a link to nagvis from nagios menu would also be great, this is an edit in /usr/share/nagios3/htdocs/side.php, specifying something like this: <li><a href="/nagvis" target="<?php echo $link_target;?>">Nagvis</a></li> somewhere the nagvis-link fits (i.e. under the link to "Map". It would be nice to have those changes done automatically after the install or at least have some documentation in /usr/share/doc/nagvis/README.Debian about it.
