Hello Joseph,
Thanks for your response. Your assumption is correct. I have configured
apache here to run as wwwrun:www which is different from the debian
default settings www-data:www-data. I have purged nagios3 and install
it again and catched the information as below
``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
chown: invalid group: `nagios:www-data'
dpkg: error processing nagios3-common (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of nagios3:
nagios3 depends on nagios3-common (= 3.0.6-4~lenny2); however:
Package nagios3-common is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing nagios3 (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
nagios3-common
nagios3
```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
So nagios-common is not configured properly and the permission problem
is there. Any idea to cope with this issue ?
Thanks
