[smokeping-users] Smokeping install issue

[Stephen Spence]

 Hi Stefan,

I'm using Apache2, also a darwinport. I'm following http://smokeping.darwinports.com/dports/net/smokeping/Portfile for the post installation stuff.

On this build I have three paths which the port installed to:

Smokedata: /opt/local/lib/smokeping/ contains the config and smokeping
Smokeroot: /opt/local/var/smokeping/ contains the log, cgi, img, etc
Smokeetc: /opt/local/etc/smokeping/

I've added an entry to apache for localhost/smokeping:

_+_+_+_+_+_+
Alias /smokeping \"/opt/local/var/smokeping\"
        <Directory \"/opt/local/var/smokeping\">
            Allow from all
            Options ExecCGI
        </Directory>

        <IfModule dir_module>
            DirectoryIndex index.html smokeping.cgi
        </IfModule>
_+_+_+_+_+_+

I can get to the apache2 root dir fine, just having problems with /smokeping

What permissions will I need to set and which? Or is it a matter of changing ownership?

Regards,
Steve

hi steve,

looks like a http-service problem ... what a server is in use ?

i'm using the default-enabled site from debian-a2, where /usr/lib/cgi-bin is the default-dir for the scripts.
this is the place for my smokeping.cgi and a softlink connects to my /"default-enabled-site"/smokeping/smokeping.cgi

# /etc/smokeping/config

sendmail = /usr/lib/sendmail
imgcache = /var/www/smokeping
imgurl   = ../smokeping
datadir  = /var/www/smokeping/var
piddir  = /var/www/smokeping/var
cgiurl   = http://192.168.100.78/smokeping/smokeping.cgi   ###
/var/www/smokeping/smokeping.cgi is the softlink to /usr/lib/cgi-bin/smokeping.cgi smokemail = /etc/smokeping/smokemail tmail = /etc/smokeping/tmail

# /var/www/ -> is my default-enabled site in my a2-config

- check that softlinks and execution is allowed in your http-server-software
- check your path-vars in smokeping.cgi, smokeping-bin-pl's and your config-files
- check the user-rights for cgi-files and pl's

kind regards

stefan

Installing Smokeping via Darwinports I'm seeing two problems that I hope somebody can help with...

Following the portfile at http://smokeping.darwinports.com everything is installed but I get a Forbidden error when visiting http://localhost/smokeping - same for the smokeping.cgi directly and Permission Denied on the .rrd when I run smokeping under -debug from the terminal. Any ideas?

The only permissions change the portfile requests is to chown on the smokedata folder for www:www (/opt/local/lib/smokeping)

TIA

Steve
