nagios on virtualhost cgi problems

Question

I have been moving my nagios on apaches virtualhost and adding the following configuration file

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
    ServerName  nagios.example.com
    ServerAlias nagios.example.com         
    DocumentRoot /usr/local/nagios/share
    ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/nagios /usr/local/nagios/sbin
    ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin /usr/local/nagios/sbin 


    # Where the stylesheets (config files) reside
    #Alias /nagios/stylesheets /usr/local/nagios/share 

    # Where the HTML pages live
    Alias /nagios  /usr/local/nagios/share

    <Directory  /usr/local/nagios/share>
        Options FollowSymLinks
        DirectoryIndex index.php
        AllowOverride AuthConfig
        Order Allow,Deny
        Allow From All

        AuthName "Nagios Access"
        AuthType Basic
        AuthUserFile /etc/nagios3/htpasswd.users
        require valid-user
    </Directory>

    </VirtualHost>

When I browse the page I'm getting the following error: The requested URL /cgi-bin/tac.cgi was not found on this server. Checking the scriptaliases routes everything seems to be alright. Clicking inside of a menu the cgi problem do not persist, just on page browsing.

Your Configuration file looks alright just comment the line

Alias /nagios  /usr/local/nagios/share

Because you are already defining the DocumentRoot thus this line is making conflict with in your path defining for Nagios.

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 and in order to fix the initial tac.cgi error you have to edit a line in the index.html and index.php files to the following.

frame src="/nagios/cgi-bin/tac.cgi" name="main" />

After that the initial page will load correctly.

I'm not sure if this is 100% correct but it 100% works.

    <VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName nagios.example.org
    ServerAlias nagios
    ServerAdmin webmaster@example.org
    DocumentRoot /usr/local/nagios/share

    ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin /usr/local/nagios/sbin
    ScriptAlias /cgi-bin /usr/local/nagios/sbin
    Alias /nagios  /usr/local/nagios/share

    <Directory /usr/local/nagios/share>
            Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
            #  SSLRequireSSL
            AllowOverride None
            Order allow,deny
            Allow from all
            #  Order deny,allow
            #  Deny from all
            #  Allow from 127.0.0.1
            AuthName "Nagios Access"
            AuthType Basic
            AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users
            Require valid-user
    </Directory>

    <Directory "/usr/local/nagios/sbin">
            #  SSLRequireSSL
            Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
            AllowOverride None
            Order allow,deny
            Allow from all
            #  Order deny,allow
            #  Deny from all
            #  Allow from 127.0.0.1
            AuthName "Nagios Access"
            AuthType Basic
            AuthUserFile /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users
            Require valid-user
    </Directory>

    ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/nagios_error.log

    LogLevel warn

    CustomLog /var/log/httpd/nagios_access.log combined
    ServerSignature On
    </VirtualHost>

I found this layout after researching and combining numerous methods. Any input would be appreciated as to why or why not this may be incorrect.
