Package: munin Version: 1.999.4508-1 Severity: normal Tags: experimental The instructions on http://munin-monitoring.org/wiki/CgiHowto for the munin-cgi-html feature are not accurate for a number of reasons:
1. The paths are wrong. There seems to be a disconnect between the new default apache.conf file and the HOWTO. The default apache.conf wants to go to /var/cache/munin/www/static for the static images, which is actually wrong, so the HOWTO's Alias is correct in this case. However, the Rewrites to /cgi-bin/munin-cgi-html is unneccesary if there is going to be an Alias to /munin-cgi. See my apache.conf below. 2. RewriteEngine will not turn on unless it's turned on from the VirtualHost statement. Per http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html#vhosts: By default, mod_rewrite configuration settings from the main server context are not inherited by virtual hosts. To make the main server settings apply to virtual hosts, you must place the following directives in each <VirtualHost> section: RewriteEngine On RewriteOptions Inherit This was driving me crazy until I saw this and put the two statements in my VirtualHost entry. Everything worked after that. 3. It recommends commenting out the munin-html line. As you can see from the last line of this email, Debian doesn't really like that. Could munin-html simply check the config and exit if it's set to munin-cgi-html? -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.3 APT prefers testing APT policy: (1000, Security), (995, 'stable'), (750, 'testing'), (50, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-128.7.1.el5xen (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages munin depends on: ii adduser 3.112+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii cron 3.0pl1-116 process scheduling daemon ii libcgi-fast-perl 5.10.1-17squeeze2 CGI::Fast Perl module ii libdate-manip-perl 6.11-1 module for manipulating dates pn libdigest-md5-perl <none> (no description available) ii libfile-copy-recursive 0.38-1 Perl extension for recursively cop ii libhtml-template-perl 2.9-2 module for using HTML Templates wi ii libio-socket-inet6-per 2.65-1.1 Object interface for AF_INET6 doma ii liblog-log4perl-perl 1.29-1 A Perl port of the widely popular ii librrds-perl 1.4.3-1 time-series data storage and displ pn libstorable-perl <none> (no description available) ii liburi-perl 1.54-2 module to manipulate and access UR ii munin-common 1.999.4508-1 network-wide graphing framework (c ii perl [libtime-hires-pe 5.10.1-17squeeze2 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii perl-modules 5.10.1-17squeeze2 Core Perl modules ii rrdtool 1.4.3-1 time-series data storage and displ ii ttf-dejavu 2.31-1 Metapackage to pull in ttf-dejavu- Versions of packages munin recommends: ii munin-node 1.999.4508-1 network-wide graphing framework (n Versions of packages munin suggests: ii apache2-mpm-prefork [h 2.2.16-6+squeeze4 Apache HTTP Server - traditional n ii elinks [www-browser] 0.12~pre5-2 advanced text-mode WWW browser ii iceweasel [www-browser 3.5.16-11 Web browser based on Firefox ii libnet-ssleay-perl 1.36-1 Perl module for Secure Sockets Lay ii lynx-cur [www-browser] 2.8.8dev.5-1 Text-mode WWW Browser with NLS sup -- Configuration Files: /etc/munin/apache.conf changed: Alias /munin /var/cache/munin/www Alias /munin-static /etc/munin/static ScriptAlias /munin-cgi /usr/lib/cgi-bin/munin-cgi-html <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on # Uncomment the following to redirect old, static URLs to the CGI-HTML RewriteRule /munin/(.*) /munin-cgi/$1 [R=301,L] RewriteRule /munin-cgi$ /munin-cgi/ [R=301,L] RewriteRule /munin-cgi/static/(.*) /munin-static/$1 [R=301,L] #RewriteLog "/var/log/apache2/rewrite.log" #RewriteLogLevel 4 </IfModule> <Directory /var/cache/munin/www> Order allow,deny Allow from localhost 127.0.0.0/8 ::1 Allow from 74.128.0.0/12 Options None # This file can be used as a .htaccess file, or a part of your apache # config file. # # For the .htaccess file option to work the munin www directory # (/var/cache/munin/www) must have "AllowOverride all" or something # close to that set. # # AuthUserFile /etc/munin/munin-htpasswd # AuthName "Munin" # AuthType Basic # require valid-user # This next part requires mod_expires to be enabled. # # Set the default expiration time for files to 5 minutes 10 seconds from # their creation (modification) time.
