the other is (likely) the cgi module for Apache2 isn’t enabled. One is a slight config change in a smokeping config file, one is some missing symlinks. Step 5: It’s not working because you’re missing a couple of things. (Hint 2: you can find the IP address of your server by entering ifconfig, it’s typically eth0) (Hint: it will fail, giving you a 404 error). Step 4: Head over to a web browser and enter the IP of your server/cgi-bin/smokeping.cgi Start ‘er up… sudo service smokeping start Step 3: If you made it this far, you’re going to be fine. That’s how you save a file in Nano, I won’t stick that bit in again. Setting up mail to work with smokeping is outside the scope of this post. You’re going to want to go into the pathnames file and comment out the line about mail. sudo nano /etc/smokeping/config.d/pathnames Step 1: install smokeping (and you’re done). UPDATE – It also works perfectly on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Server :~) I’m using the 64bit Server variety, but this should work on any 14.04 system. This guide assumes a fresh out of the box Ubuntu install. Since 14.04 however, it’s been a bit of a mission. Installing Smokeping on Ubuntu used to be a total breeze.
