I did indeed check out several books prior to posting my messages, and while all of them are thorough with</DIV> <DIV dir=ltr align=left>doing a scratch installation, there were none that I read which delved deeply into doing an upgrade. The upgrade scenario is what I am</DIV> <DIV dir=ltr align=left>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</DIV> <DIV dir=ltr align=left>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</DIV> <DIV dir=ltr align=left>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</DIV> <DIV dir=ltr align=left>to Nagios 2.x was not very difficult. I am hoping to accomplish that here.</DIV> <DIV dir=ltr align=left> </DIV> <DIV dir=ltr align=left> </DIV> <DIV class=OutlookMessageHeader lang=en-us dir=ltr align=left> <HR tabIndex=-1> From: Andrew Davis [mailto:nccomp@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, June 25, 2009 9:19 AM To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Problem getting past main page </DIV> <DIV></DIV>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... <PRE class=moz-signature cols="72"> A.

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. <<httpd.conf>> <PRE>The information in this e-mail is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed.
