Hey, i am quite new with linux. I am using the nagios-3.pdf to install it on a Suse Linux 10 server. However i get stuck with the: MAKE INSTALL-INIT

then it says: No rule to make target `install-init’. Stop.

No idea what to du now. Can anyone please help me?

thanks in advance !

I am getting something like this except when configuring the web interface running the make-webconf it gives me a "No rule to make target install-webconf Stop"
I am using OpenSuse 11 with nagios 3.0.3

Never mind, fixed this, was trying to run it from ~/download directory tried again from ~/download/nagios-3.0.3 directory and it worked.

Thanks anyway

Did you install it from RPM or from source. Iwould suggest to install it from source, because some of differences in the paths.
Try this:

Anyhow, reinstalling Nagios would probably help. Good luck.

What do you mean with reinstalling it? i copied the tar file on the linux system and untared it. Then i followed the instructions in the pdf file until the problem occured.

I can untar it again, but i doubt that will help. :frowning:
