To install and configure Nagios core with Nginx on CentOS 7.4
Nagios is a popular open source monitoring tool which in turn monitor the services running on the remote machine via the web interface. In this session, we will see the installation and configuration of Nagios on CentOS 7.4 with Nginx.
Installation
Let' s first, install epel-release using the following command.
[root@localhost ~]# yum install epel-release -y

Now you have to Start and enable nginx service.
[root@localhost ~]# systemctl start nginx
[root@localhost ~]# systemctl enable nginx
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/nginx.service to /usr/lib/systemd/system/nginx.service.
Now let' s Create a Virtualhost for Nagios.
[root@localhost ~]# cd /etc/nginx/conf.d/
[root@localhost conf.d]# vi nagios.conf
server {
listen 80
server_name nagios.linuxhelp1.com
access_log /var/log/nginx/nagios-access.log
error_log /var/log/nginx/nagios-error.log info
root /usr/local/nagios/share
index index.php
auth_basic " Nagios Restricted Access"
auth_basic_user_file /usr/local/nagios/passwd
location /stylesheets {
alias /usr/local/nagios/share/stylesheets
}
location ~ .cgi$ {
root /usr/local/nagios/sbin/
include fastcgi_params
rewrite ^/nagios/cgi-bin/(.*).cgi /$1.cgi break
fastcgi_param AUTH_USER $remote_user
fastcgi_param REMOTE_USER $remote_user
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/fcgiwrap.socket
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /usr/local/nagios/sbin/$fastcgi_script_name
fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_script_name
}
location ~ .php$ {
include fastcgi_params
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/nagios.socket
fastcgi_index index.php
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /usr/local/nagios/share$fastcgi_script_name

}

root /usr/local/nagios/share/
rewrite ^/nagios/(.*) /$1 break
access_log off expires max
}
}
Save and exit from the file. Restart the Nginx service.
[root@localhost conf.d]# systemctl restart nginx
Now add the port 80 in firewall.
[root@localhost conf.d]# firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=80/tcp --zone=public success [root@localhost conf.d]# firewall-cmd --reload Success
Next, create a Nagios user and add it to the nginx webserver group “ nginx”
[root@localhost conf.d]# useradd nagios
[root@localhost conf.d]# usermod -aG nagios nginx
Now configure php-fpm for Nagios by editing nagios.conf file
[root@localhost conf.d]# vim /etc/php-fpm.d/nagios.conf
[nagios]
listen = /var/run/php-fpm/nagios.socket
listen.owner = nginx
listen.group = nginx
listen.mode=0660
listen.allowed_clients = 127.0.0.1
user = nagios
group = nagios
pm = dynamic
pm.max_children = 50
pm.start_servers = 5
pm.min_spare_servers = 5
pm.max_spare_servers = 35
slowlog = /var/log/php-fpm/www-slow.log
php_flag[display_errors] = on
php_admin_value[error_log] = /var/log/php-fpm/nagios-error.log
php_admin_flag[log_errors] = on
php_value[session.save_handler] = files
php_value[session.save_path] = /var/lib/php/session
Next, restart and enable php-fpm
[root@localhost php-fpm.d]# systemctl restart php-fpm
[root@localhost php-fpm.d]# systemctl enable php-fpm
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/php-fpm.service to /usr/lib/systemd/system/php-fpm.service.
Next download the nagios 4.3.4 in any archive format by wget command
[root@localhost ~]# wget -O nagioscore.tar.gz https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/nagioscore/archive/nagios-4.3.4.tar.gz
