FAIL: server_name is set incorrectly for your webserver

[flipsid3]

Hi all,

It appears I have an issue with the server after switching the address from an IP to actual domain. The validate.php gives me:

FAIL: server_name is set incorrectly for your webserver, update your webserver config. example-dev.com parse failure (/librenms/validate/results)

FIX:
server_name example-dev.com;

I have applied the fix (well, I did that as a configuration step) in my NGINX conf file. No luck. (Did a restart of nginx, php and mysql). I also tried with base_url and with APP_url values as well as with /etc/hosts change but it still gives me the error.

It is urgent to fix this as the application refuses to create an API token until it is resolved

Did anyone have a similar issue and managed to fix it? What is the solution, please? I did have a look around the community forum and generally on the internet, did not see any resolved cases that worked for this scenario

You must have a configuration error somewhere, but you didn’t provide any evidence (configuration files, etc).

Like Tozz said it’s hard to answer without more info.
Did you change to server_name for both http and https(if you’re using both of course)?

Not sure if this setting can cause that error-message but does the “LibreNMS hostname” and/or more likely “Specific URL” match the new hostname under the System → Server settings?

Can be closed. It was simply a misconfiguration in Global Settings → Server → Specific URL which needed https:// in front of example.com/ .

Thanks guys
