Nagios share directory doesn't exist

[Honia A]

Hi Jim,

 

Thanks for your reply. You're right, I am going to start fresh and this time will install it from the source.

 

I did a rpm -e nagios and it removed the package but when I do a find / -name nagios, it finds the followings:

 

/etc/nagios
/var/log/nagios
/var/nagios
/home/username/nagvis-1.5/uifx/src/modules/gmap/domain/nagios
/usr/lib/nagios
/usr/share/nagios
/usr/share/nagios/nagvis/uifx/src/modules/gmap/domain/nagios


 

Should I manually delete those?

 

Also, can you please point me to a step by step instruction on how to correctly install nagios from the source?

 

Thanks in advance,

h
