Problem getting past main page

[Kaplan, Andrew H.]

Hi there --
 
Thank-you for your reply. I did indeed check out several books prior to posting
my messages,  and while all of them are thorough with
doing a scratch installation, there were none that I read which delved deeply
into doing an upgrade. The upgrade scenario is what I am
involved with at this time. The purpose of this exercise is to be able to
preserve the configuration, and have it available in the newer
version of the Nagios application. I am hoping to avoid having to rebuild all
checks from the beginning. The amount of checks that I have
in place would require a great deal of time that I am hoping I will not have to
commit. My previous upgrading experince, from Nagios 1.x
to Nagios 2.x was not very difficult. I am hoping to accomplish that here.

I recognize this may sound a little terse and I don't mean it to be so... but as
I've seen all the emails from you that are indicative of a first time setup,
might I suggest getting a Nagios book to assist you? There's quite a few out
there. I personally use Nagios 2nd Edition from Wolfgang Barth and its proven to
very valuable...

Just a thought...

	I went ahead and copied the nagios directory from our original server to
the new 
	one. Once that was done, I did the upgrade to version 3.1.2 of nagios.
The main page 
	of the application appears without a problem. However, whenever I try to
go to any one 
	of the links from the main page, an error message similar to the one
below appears 
	on-screen: 

	Not Found 
	The requested URL /nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi was not found on this
server. 


	I noticed that after I inserted the snippets from the nagios.conf file
into the 
	httpd.conf file, and subsequently restarted the Apache server, the
following 
	errors appeared on-screen: 

	Starting httpd: The ScriptAlias directive in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
at line 
	566 will probably never match because it overlaps an earlier
ScriptAlias. 
	[warn] The Alias directive in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf at line 583
will 
	probably never match because it overlaps an earlier Alias. 

	I have enclosed a copy of the httpd.conf file in its present version. I
am at a 
	lossas to why the error message is occurring, and I would really
appreciate help on 
	this.
