Install Issues!

Help

Morning,

I am trying to get LibreNMS setup but I keep getting stuck. I first comissioned a Ubuntu 16.04 with LAMP. I then followed the guide to the letter here: https://docs.librenms.org/#Installation/Installation-Ubuntu-1604-Apache/

Following that I got no errors, after getting to the the end and trying to navigate to 172.16.0.184/install.php I get the error The requested URL /install.php was not found on this server.

Validate.php gives me.

root@SR-LibreNMS-01 : /opt/librenms # ./validate.php

[ FAIL ] We have found some files that are owned by a different user than librenms, this will stop you updating automatically and / or rrd files being updated causing graphs to fail.

[ FIX ] chown -R librenms:librenms /opt/librenms

Files:

/opt/librenms/composer.phar

Hi,

First -> chown -R librenms:librenms /opt/librenms

For accesing it, you must use the ServerName hostname you set up in /etc/apache/sites-available/librenms.conf so you must create that DNS records.

If you use the IP address you will go to the apache default site, which is not the librenms site.

Did you enabled correctly librenms site (a2ensite librenms)?

You should check first why is not connecting to the correct site but that is more a sysadmin general than librenms specific.

Your db details are wrong. Check and correct them in config.php and .env

Cheers. I had the server name wrong.

After fixing that the error is not just " [ FAIL ] Error connecting to your database. No route to host"

Now time to work on that. Cheers.

Don’t worry I’m all good now.
