Hello
A new installation of nagios on a headless server can be browsed but clicking on any of the LHS menu items (green "lights") except Home produces an error message like "The requested URL /cgi-bin/nagios3/config.cgi was not found on this server".
What I've tried:
- Netsearched for nagios with "The requested URL" with "was not found on this server". Got few hits, suggesting the problem is specific to this server.
- Checked the nagios Apache config file is symlinked from /etc/apache2/conf.d and has a sane ScriptAlias and DirectoryMatch.
- Checked the CGI script does exist and is readable (and executable, in case it matters).
The evidence:
Code:

OS: Debian Squeeze 64 bit
nagios: installed by
aptitude install nagios
Apache: as installed with the OS plus some port-based virtual servers.
What to check next?
