When I ran the configure script for the application, there was a series of options that were used to complete the process. The following is taken from the config.status file from the installation directory: ac_cs_config="'--prefix=/usr/local/icinga-web' '--with-web-user=apache' '--with-web-group=apache' '--with-web-path=/icinga-web' '--with-web-apache-path=/etc/httpd/conf.d' '--with-db-type=mysql' '--with-db-host=localhost' '--with-db-port=3306' '--with-db-name=icinga_web' '--with-db-user=icinga_web' '--with-db-pass=icinga_web' '--with-conf-dir=etc/conf.d' '--with-log-folder=log' '--with-api-subtype=driver' '--with-api-host=localhost' '--with-api-port=3306' '--with-api-socket-path=none'"

--with-api-type=driver sounds funny. why did you set that? that goes hand in hand with your first connection exception based on the driver. i bet a beer that this is the reason your icinga-web can't connect to the database.

btw - post the databases.xml where you configure your db access for further verification.


ehm. this is a joke right? 777 for _all_ dirs plus recursive? why did you do that dangerous setting? This change was made in attempt to allow the necessary write access to the /usr/local/icinga-web/app/cache directory. If this problem can be solved, I will readily
change the permissions back to 644 on both directories.

well i would rather wipe the install again and start from scratch. first 777 now 644 - something for thedailywtf.com - sorry. that makes the situation to debug more critical - what if application expects specific dir permissions you have now overridden? there's a reason why there's a make install option ....


The decision to make the directory permissions 777 is simply part of the troubleshooting process that I conducted on my end. I do not intend to keep the
permissions as such when the server goes into production.

whoever told you this to troubleshoot, simply forget it. you won't see such hints neither in the icinga docs nor the wiki entries we write ourselves.
