[ubuntu] Nagvis Installation

[Hightower]

I've tried following the documentation to install nagvis, but keep running into various errors.

 

Has anybody successfully installed this on Ubuntu (64-bit) and if so can you give me some pointers?

Just tried this once more and this is where I'm getting stuck:

 

When trying to start NDOUtils with:

 

/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndo2db-2x -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/ndo2db.cfg

 

I get an error "Support for the specified database server is either not yet supported, or was not found on your system".

 

I installed MySQL before I compiled the NDOUtils, and have even tried the:

 

./configure --with-mysql........

 

Anybody got any pointers? Something to check? I feel like I'm close but struggling to just this hurdle.

Okay - a bit digging and I found something that said I needed to install libmysqlclient15-dev and reconfigure.

 

That seems to have done the trick....

Well I got the service started, but when I go to the GUI of nagvis now and Overview I get the attached error.

 

Anybody help?

Haven't poked around with nagvis for ages, but have you set the correct mysql username and password in the config file? That's a standard "I can't talk to the database" error.

Just done that thanks - now I get "default instance name for ndomy_1" error.
