Quick setup: Munin + Lighttpd
Posted: Fri Apr 18, 2014 2:08 am
I'm using Munin for monitoring some of our servers. Since I want it to get into the way as little as possible, I've chosen to use lighttpd instead of Apache2.
The system is a Debian 7 (Wheezy), 64bit.
Here's how you setup Munin with lighttpd quickly:
1) Install Munin & Munin-node:
2) Install lighttpd:
3) Set symlink to Munin's web-graphs folder:
With Apache, installing Munin automatically configures Apache to forward "/munin" to "/var/cache/munin/www/", but that's not happening with lighttpd
Just go to "/var/www" and create a symbolic link to "/var/cache/munin/www/":
Now you should be able to access Munin's graphs under "http://localhost/munin". Of course, you can replace "localhost" with your server name.
That's it.
The system is a Debian 7 (Wheezy), 64bit.
