managed to make it work:

1. install deps:
yum install httpd rrdtool rrdtool-perl perl-libwww-perl perl-MailTools perl-MIME-Lite perl-CGI perl-DBI perl-XML-Simple perl-Config-General perl-HTTP-Server-Simple

2. get latest rpm from http://www.monitorix.org/

3. install via yum : yum localinstall monitorix*

4. Create and edit /etc/httpd/conf.d/monitorix.conf

cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/monitorix.conf
Alias /monitorix /var/lib/monitorix/www
ScriptAlias /monitorix-cgi /var/lib/monitorix/www/cgi

--------------------
i used port 8088. you can change it.If you used apache keep in mind to disable httpd-build in from /etc/monitorix/monitorix.conf

hope it helps

had anyone tried to install it on 6.5 x64?
i manage to install it without issues but unfortunatelly can't access it.
can't find in the config file where to change the interface bind from 127.0.0.1 to all.
rpm -qa | grep monitorix
monitorix-3.5.1-1.noarch

Installation on 6.4 went oke but for some sort of reason i don't see anything happen on the Apache graph just a red line?
Any answer on this?

11. service httpd restart
10. service monitorix start
12. http://ip_ClearOS/monitorix

Interesting but cool side effect.

Installing this lead me to realizing I had a failed CPU fan. So, thanks.
Replacement fan ordered.

That looks correct have you done service monitorix restart?

It only looks at the .conf when i loads.

how do I get it to show all my filesystems, I have the following in my config file:

our @DISK_LIST = (
"/dev/sda1",
"/dev/sda2",
"/dev/sda3",
"/dev/sda4",
"/dev/sda5",
"/dev/sdb1",
"/dev/sdc1",
);


my fdisk -l output is

so I have all the hard drives in, but it only shows
/
Swap
and /boot

I am on 6.3 Got it all installed just have one issue now and its with "Filesystem usage and I/O activity"

Edit

Filesystem usage problem I think was caused by me trying the latest rpm from monitorix web site then uninstalling it and installing 2.5.2 which caused my /etc/monitorix.conf getting messed up. I uninstalled the rpm's deleted my config file and started from scratch again.

Are you on ClearOS 5? If so I might have missed the stop on installing the webserver module.

Ok I solved my perl-HTTP-Server-Simple by doing yum --enablerepo=rpmforge install perl-HTTP-Server-Simple

I then got monitorix installed using monitorix-2.5.2-1.el6.rf.noarch.rpm

So now have it all running and am starting to look at the config file to add my disks etc. Is not graphing "Filesystem usage and I/O activity" so need to investigate that next

This sounded like fun so I thought I would give it a go unfortunately I fell at the first hurdle.

yum install perl-HTTP-Server-Simple

Setting up Install Process

No package perl-HTTP-Server-Simple available.

Error: Nothing to do

So where do I find perl-HTTP-Server-Simple?

Also out of interest will this version work http://www.monitorix.org/monitorix-3.1.0-1.noarch.rpm or am I better off sticking with 2.5.2

Thanks for the info, chaps

so you would suggest

chkconfig monitorix on
chkconfig httpd on

http://linuxcommand.org/man_pages/chkconfig8.html
chkconfig --list < shows whats what.

chkconfig --add monitorix didnt throw any errors so its looking good.
Do I need to --add the monitorix first ?

Hmm, I don't really know the answer - I use ntsysv. I think it relies on the chkconfig parameters being correctly set.

Where do I add eth1, ppp0 in the config file? I found the host name entry, but can't find where I put in the eth1 and ppp0

Tim, its rare I find that problem with my ClearOS boxes that you haven't already resolved. Thanks very much for all your help.

Just to give people some idea what your looking at. So different run levels have different systems starting up. For example you wouldn't really need smb(windows file sharing) starting on level 1, as you need to start the network which starts level2.

Thanks for posting! I use Monitorix here too and it works well

Default access is for localhost only (127.0.0.1) by adding all you are permitting any IP to access...you could restrict to just LAN subnets for example

To start something automatically, either use "ntsysv" or "chkconfig httpd on"
