\nHere is steps installing zabbix-1.8 on Lenny :<\/p>\n

I assume you already have a running apache, mysql and ssh-server, so preparing all needed dependencies should be simple as follows :<\/p>\n

{code}apt-get install build-essential
\napt-get install fping
\napt-get install libsnmp-dev
\napt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
\napt-get install php5-gd
\napt-get install libiksemel-dev
\napt-get install libmysqlclient-dev{\/code}<\/p>\n

Create the zabbix user :
\n{code}sudo adduser zabbix
\nenter the new password
\nconfirm once again{\/code}<\/p>\n

Download and untar the source :
\n{code}su – zabbix
\nwget http:\/\/optusnet.dl.sourceforge.net\/sourceforge\/zabbix\/zabbix-1.8.tar.gz
\ntar xfzv zabbix-1.8.tar.gz{\/code}<\/p>\n

Using mysql as database, create zabbix database and import the prequisite sql :
\n{code}shell> mysql -u<username> -p<password>
\nmysql> create database zabbix character set utf8;
\nmysql> quit;
\nshell> cd create\/schema
\nshell> cat mysql.sql | mysql -u<username> -p<password> zabbix
\nshell> cd ..\/data
\nshell> cat data.sql | mysql -u<username> -p<password> zabbix
\nshell> cat images_mysql.sql | mysql -u<username> -p<password> zabbix{\/code}<\/p>\n

Now it’s time to compile the source :
\n{code}cd zabbix-1.8
\n.\/configure –enable-server –enable-agent –with-mysql –with-net-snmp –with-libcurl –with-jabber –prefix=\/usr
\nmake
\nsu
\n# Enter root password
\nmake install{\/code}<\/p>\n

Edit \/etc\/services with your favourite editor and insert this line at the end :
\n{code}zabbix_agent 10050\/tcp # Zabbix ports<\/p>\n

zabbix_trap 10051\/tcp{\/code}
\nSave and exit.<\/p>\n

Prepare the zabbix config by editing the default config from them :
\n{code}mkdir \/etc\/zabbix
\nchown -R zabbix.zabbix \/etc\/zabbix\/
\ncp misc\/conf\/zabbix_* \/etc\/zabbix\/{\/code}<\/p>\n

and edit the \/etc\/zabbix\/zabbix_agentd.conf:<\/p>\n

Make sure that the Server parameter points to the server address, for the agent that runs on the server it is like this and adjust as for your needs :
\n{code}Server=127.0.0.1{\/code}
\nSave and exit.<\/p>\n

Edit \/etc\/zabbix\/zabbix_server.conf and adjust to the database user and password :
\n{code}# Database user
\nDBUser=zabbix
\n# Database password
\n# Comment this line if no password used
\nDBPassword=Secret{\/code}
\nSave and exit.<\/p>\n

Copy the pre configure init.d scripts from zabbix and place them to the right spot on debian :
\n{code}sudo cp misc\/init.d\/debian\/zabbix-server \/etc\/init.d
\nsudo cp misc\/init.d\/debian\/zabbix-agent \/etc\/init.d{\/code}<\/p>\n

I found this should be edited as per 1.8 version for zabbix-server and zabbix-agent :<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Edit the \/etc\/init.d\/zabbix-server, and look for this line :
\n{code}DAEMON=\/home\/zabbix\/bin\/${NAME}{\/code}
\nand change them to :
\n{code}DAEMON=\/usr\/sbin\/${NAME}{\/code}
\nSave and exit.<\/p>\n

Now set the correct permissions and set ZABBIX to start when the machine boots:
\n{code}sudo chmod 755 \/etc\/init.d\/zabbix-server
\nsudo update-rc.d zabbix-server defaults
\nsudo chmod 755 \/etc\/init.d\/zabbix-agent
\nsudo update-rc.d zabbix-agent defaults{\/code}<\/p>\n

And start the server and the agent :
\n{code}\/etc\/init.d\/zabbix-server start
\n\/etc\/init.d\/zabbix-agent start{\/code}<\/p>\n

Check the running server using ps aux | grep zabbix and you should see some output telling the zabbix-server were run on some PID.<\/p>\n

Done. The server part were already run.<\/p>\n

The web interface<\/strong><\/p>\n

Copy the web interface frontend to apache root directory<\/p>\n

{code}
\ncd \/var\/www
\nrm index.html
\ncp -R \/home\/zabbix\/zabbix-1.8\/frontends\/php\/* .
\n{\/code}<\/p>\n

And make sure you adjust the php.ini setting accordingly to this pre-quisite :
\n{code}max_execution_time = 300
\ndate.timezone = Asia\/Jakarta{\/code}<\/p>\n

Restart the apache, and now you can install using :<\/p>\n

http:\/\/<servername or ip>\/zabbix\/<\/pre>\n
The default username for admin is admin and the password zabbix. Change the admin password immidiately after login, and check for the zabbix server daemon availibility.<\/p>\n
