I read from a message board online that I may need to disable SElinux.
Has anyone else had this problem or have any ideas why I might be
getting this error? And if it could be SElinux how do I shut it off? I
have edited /etc/selinux/conf and specified disabled but I am not sure
how to turn it off.
Probably it's selinux. IIRC, the policy for apache is set to run only
programs inside /var/www/ and ~*/public_html (and this is only after you
enable that option). You can try running "setenforce permissive" and
restarting apache.. If it works, use system-config-securitylevel to
disable selinux (or if you dont have that installed, I think the file
you need to edit is /etc/sysconfig/selinux ).
If that's really the case, I'd suggest talking to the Nagios people and
asking them to work with the selinux guys to make a nagios policy..
After all , nagios is one excelent tool that would benefit from the
extra selinux protection...
