Hi,
please show the installed versions of Icinga 2 and Icinga Web 2. Also, did you verify that the API is reachable with the given connection details? Please post the output of it too.

Hi,
okidoki, then there are 2 things I can think of:
- localhost instead of ::1
- SELinux - try installing the icinga2-selinux and icingaweb2-selinux packages or set SELinux to permissive
Cheers,

-
localhost instead of ::1
that´s what I did
-
SELinux
icinga2-selinux and icingaweb2-selinux already installed.
Try 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost, might be PHP doing some magic lookup here.
just tried it, but it’s still the same
Try disabling SELinux to mitigate the issue further. Is Icinga Web 2 running on the same host as Icinga 2?
yes, both are on the same host
it worked out after disabling SELinux
thank you!
Check messages and the audit log. It’ll typically have a suggestion on how to allow that through even if the provided package wasn’t getting the job done. That’s if you want selinux anyway. Keeps your infosec guys happy.

In case someone else runs into this and still wants to leave SELinux enabled
run
semanage port -a -t http_port_t -p tcp 5665
Hi,
installing the icingaweb2-selinux and icinga2-selinux packages should be sufficient to setup the SELinux rules as well.
Cheers,
Michael
