I installed Icinga2 core on linux(Redhat). I tried to start the servies. ( /etc7init.d/ service icinga2 start.) Below error was shown
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start icinga2.service
Failed to start icinga2.service: Interactive authentication required.
See system logs and ‘systemctl status icinga2.service’ for details.
Please help me how to resolve this issue and start icinga2 services succefully
Below is the output when I started icinga services.
“Checking configuration: Not starting Icinga 2 due to configuration errors. Check ‘/…/icinga/var/log/icinga2/startup.log’ for details.”
Verfiied the startup .log which says
“…/icinga/lib64/icinga2/sbin/icinga2: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_context.so.1.71.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”
But the library files mentioned in the startup log are available. I installed boost 1.71 version. While configuring icinga as well I added the above mentioned library files.
Did you use the src rpm to comile it? if no, use it to compile it on customer systems.
Also from my knowledge Icinga2 2.11 depends on boost 1.69 and not 1.71
It should work, but you won’t get support for self-compiled stuff. We only test what’s integrated with the packages, also with CI tests after building them prior to uploading to the repository.

However, mine is easy to fix… just su to root and start the icinga2.
