nagvis for Debian
-----------------

Thank you using the NagVis addon for Nagios Network Monitoring System.

To get it work you have to be sure the ndoutils package is installed and works
fine. NagVis uses the database account of ndoutils to connect to the database. If
you change this account with reconfiguring ndoutils, don't forget to
dpkg-reconfigure nagvis too to get the new configuration.

If you got still errors of not working NDOUtils, check your /etc/nagios3/nagios.cfg
if the broker module ndomod.o is enabled and check_external_commands=1 is set to
get the table <prefix>_programstatus updated.
(See http://www.nagvis.org/docs/general/often_reported_errors#nagiosnotrunning)

There are some examples in /usr/share/doc/nagvis/examples/demo to see NagVis 
functionality. Just copy the files in demo/ to the appropriate location and change
its owner and group to be www-data:www-data.

Starting with 1.4.5, there are changes from older packages.

* URL and CGI-Path:
Since nagvis now can be used with other systems like icinga or web interface 
like ninja, the htdocs path is no longer part of nagios3 directory structure. 
The new directory for nagvis is now /usr/share/nagvis/htdocs/nagvis. The 
authentification therefore has to be configured separately. Have a look at 
/etc/nagvis/apache.conf and edit it for your needs.

* Templates:
The template directory /etc/nagvis/templates has moved back to 
/usr/share/nagvis/htdocs/nagvis/templates, images for templates now located in
/usr/share/nagvis/htdocs/nagvis/images/templates

If you installed your own templates in /etc/nagvis/templates, proceed the 
following steps:

- cp /etc/nagios/templates/header/*.png \
  /usr/share/nagvis/htdocs/nagvis/images/templates/header/

- cp /etc/nagios/templates/hover/*.png \
  /usr/share/nagvis/htdocs/nagvis/images/templates/hover/

- /etc/nagios/templates/header/*.{css,html}
  /usr/share/nagvis/htdocs/nagvis/templates/header/

- /etc/nagios/templates/hover/*.{css,html}
  /usr/share/nagvis/htdocs/nagvis/templates/hover/
