Nagios For Debian

[Joel Roberts]

Ok, tried to wipe out the original Nagios install and do a clean install
from Debian Synaptic manager and now it won't load.

Following the walkthrough at
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/299

And everything goes fine until I stop and re-start Apache, then I get
the following error:

[warn] The ScriptAlias directive in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/nagios at
line 7 will probably never match because it overlaps an earlier
ScriptAlias

Anyone know what I need to do to remove the ScriptAlias from the
previous install? When I log onto the webpage now, every page comes back
with:

Whoops!

Error: Could not read host and service status information!

Thanks

I'm running Nagios 2.9 on Debian etch; this is a list of the snmp 
related packages that are installed on the system

-snmp
-snmpd
-libsnmp-session-perl
-libsnmp-perl
-libsnmp-base
-libsnmp9
-libsnmp5
-libsnmp4.2
-libsnmp4.2-dev
-libnet-snmp-perl

I must admit that this system was upgraded from sarge to etch using 
'apt-get dist-upgrade', but I already installed various Nagios servers 
on Debian Sarge and Etch and never had any problems of that kind.
I looked up my own docs and these are my prerequisites for compiling 
snmp-plugins :
-libnetsnmp-perl
-libsnmp4.2 (or higher)
-libsnmp4.2-dev (or higher)
-snmpget
Hope this helps,

Frederik
