https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=688020 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=688020#c0 Summary: No password for nagios given after installing via packages. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.4 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: openSUSE 11.4 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: grey_0x1a@yahoo.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0 I tried to install nagios via the Suse packages. I think they might have worked correctly, but there is no given password for nagiosadmin which appears to be the configure superuser of nagios. I could not find any documentation on how to change this anywhere on the web, since I could not find a .htaccess, htpasswd file on the system to modify. I used 'find / -name "*htd*"', 'find / -name "*htp*"', and 'find / -name "*htac*"' to try and find the correct file but no joy. So I will give up and install from source. What is the point of these packages if you do not document what the password is? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.install nagios package includeing nagios-www 2.turn on appache (httpd) and nagios via yast 3. try and log in via localhost/nagios but you can't because you don't know the password and black does not work. Maybe other things I don't know. Actual Results: you get a server error page. Server error! The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there was an error in a CGI script. If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster. Error 500 localhost Sat Apr 16 18:49:49 2011 Apache/2.2.17 (Linux/SUSE) Expected Results: A better page than that. I don't know nagios so I really can't say what to do here. But it does not help that I think you guys have spent some time getting it to work and I can't use it because of the password issue. Your wiki page http://en.opensuse.org/Nagios It not helpful in part because it looks like it implying to install half from source, which I would avoid like the plague and tell everyone else to do as well. I think this is documentation problem but I am not sure. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
