Nagios 403 Forbidden error on centos vm

[akula24]

Hello all,

The installation went well but when ever I try to access through webpage ...


Forbidden

you don't have permission to access /nagios/ on this server.

Apache/2.2.15 (CentOS) Server at 159.92.5.64 port 80


Any advice pl..

Thanks

You will need to set the nagios directory execute permissions for other users. Try "chmod 775 /nagios"

Hello,

If you're running CentOS 6, then SELinux is enforcing by default. You'll have to make sure you have your contexts set properly for the new files you have installed in your web directory.
Since you're getting a 403 error, you also need to make sure the 'apache' user has read and execute permissions on that directory. Generally, if you installed the files via command line as root, root will be the owner. You can chown apache /path/to/www_root/nagios -R
I don't recommend giving 'other' any permissions unless absolutely necessary.
