Installing Zabbixon on Ubuntu 18.04
Zabbixon is an open-source network monitoring tool that allows you to monitor the performance and availability of your network infrastructure. It provides real-time monitoring, alerting, and reporting features to help you keep track of your network's health.
To install Zabbixon on Ubuntu 18.04, you can follow the steps below:
Step 1: Update System
Before installing any new software, it's always a good idea to update your system first. Open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Step 2: Install Required Packages
Zabbixon requires a few packages to be installed on your system. Install them by running the command:
sudo apt install apache2 libapache2-mod-php7.2 php7.2 php7.2-common php7.2-mbstring php7.2-xmlwriter php7.2-zip php7.2-soap php7.2-gd php7.2-ldap php7.2-mysql mysql-server mysql-client
Step 3: Download Zabbixon
Download the latest stable version of Zabbixon from their official website or from their GitHub repository. You can use the following command to download the tarball:
wget https://github.com/zabbix/zabbix/archive/refs/tags/4.4.10.tar.gz
Step 4: Extract Zabbixon Archive
Once the download is complete, extract the archive using the following command:
tar -xf 4.4.10.tar.gz
Step 5: Create Zabbixon Database
Create a new MySQL database and user for Zabbixon. You can use the following commands to achieve this:
mysql -u root -p
Then, within the MySQL prompt, run the following commands:
CREATE DATABASE zabbix CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin; CREATE USER 'zabbix'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON zabbix.* TO 'zabbix'@'localhost'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; EXIT;
Step 6: Configure Zabbixon
Now, go to the Zabbixon directory that was extracted earlier:
cd zabbix-4.4.10
Copy the default configuration file:
cp -r frontends/php/include/zabbix.conf.php.example /etc/zabbix/zabbix.conf.php
Edit the configuration file as follows:
sudo nano /etc/zabbix/zabbix.conf.php
Change the following lines to match your MySQL database configuration:
$DB['TYPE'] = 'MYSQL';
$DB['SERVER'] = 'localhost';
$DB['PORT'] = '0';
$DB['DATABASE'] = 'zabbix';
$DB['USER'] = 'zabbix';
$DB['PASSWORD'] = 'password';
$ZBX_SERVER_HOST = 'localhost';
Save and exit the file.
Step 7: Configure Apache
Create a new virtual host configuration for Zabbixon:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/zabbix.conf
Add the following contents to the file:
Alias /zabbix /var/www/html/zabbix
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
Save and close the file.
Enable the new virtual host:
sudo a2ensite zabbix.conf
Restart Apache to apply the changes:
sudo systemctl restart apache2
Step 8: Run Zabbixon Installer
Access Zabbixon installer through a web browser by navigating to:
http://YOUR_SERVER_IP/zabbix/setup.php
Follow the instructions to complete the installation process.
After the installation is complete, you can access your Zabbixon dashboard by going to:
