Hi James,
You are right. '/etc/httpd/conf.d/' does not exist. Unfortunately, I do not
know how to find out the directory, Apache on my system refers to
'/etc/httpd/conf.d/'.
However, I successfully keyed in the 'ScriptAlias' and 'Alias' directives
into my '/usr/local/apache2/httpd.conf' config file (I reinstalled Apache to
the default location). Still, I am getting the same error on doing a 'sudo
make install-webconf'.

I had raised a query on the Apache forum, on which of *apache2.conf* and *
httpd.con*f is the *config file* of Apache. I got an answer stating that it
depends on type of installation method followed. If the source files
(.tar.gz) are used, then it is *httpd.conf*, else, *apache2.conf*. So, it is
true in my case.
Based on this, I observed an already installed Nagios setup on a different
machine. It's *config file* is *apache2.conf* (again true, it was installed
using Synaptic Package Manager).
So, I was thinking to try installing using the 'Synaptic Package Manager' or
'apt-get'. However, both aren't working for me. Though I am able to proxy
the internet (sitting behind a proxy server), Synaptic sudo apt-get say,
they cannot resolve 'archive.ubuntu.com', etc.
Any idea, how to go about?
Thanks,
Jim

Hi - sounds like your issue is that the generic make install in nagios
src tries to drop a file called nagios.conf into httpd's (usually the
default) location, /etc/httpd/conf.d/, which, appears does not exist on
your server...
If you can find what directory your apache uses for /etc/httpd/conf.d/
you can manually copy and paste whatever is in nagios.conf (the one
trying to be installed from nagios src dir) into your
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf (You can likely disregard the
apache2.conf stuff - sounds like they used their own file naming, as
the default is normally httpd.conf) - Apache itself is very flexible,
there are many ways to configure it - nagios simply guesses you are
using redhat, so it tries to drop it's httpd config into
/etc/httpd/conf.d)
HTH ...

3.0
Hi,
On reading https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/httpd.html, I
understand that /etc/apache2/apache2.conf is the most important file.
Though I have installed Apache in /etc/apache2 location, I do not have
apache2.conf file as mentioned in the site.
However, when I stop/start the Apache service using the command
'/etc/apache2/bin/apachectl -k stop/start' respectively, and check
http://127.0.0.1 http://127.0.0.1/ and ps -A | grep httpd, the
results
are OK.
Thanks,
Jim

Hi All,
I am following the Quickstart Guide for installing NAGIOS using
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/quickstart-ubuntu.html.
One of the prerequisites is Apache2, which I installed, and was
successful
in getting It Works!! for http://127.0.0.1 http://127.0.0.1/ .
However, I am stuck at point 5) Configure the Web Interface, make
install-
webconf.
When this command is issued, this is what I get.
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 sample-config/httpd.conf
/etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios.conf
/usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file
'/etc/httpd/conf.d/nagios.conf': No such file or directory
make: *** [install-webconf] Error 1
Prefix for Apache: /etc/apache2
I believe the httpd.conf file and a few others also need to be edited
for
Nagios. Can some please guide me through this?
Thanks,
Jim
