This is continue of my last post on how to change nagios frontend with vshell

Nagios version : 3.x

While configuring the vshell it might be possible you can get this warning message.
The warning message occur when you run the command ./install.php of vshell .

To resolve this issue.Open the nagios.cfg file and enable the external command

In Ubuntu and Debian , the location of nagios.cfg file is /etc/nagios3/nagios.cfg (For Nagios 3.x)

In Red Hat and CentOS,the location of nagios.cfg file is /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg (For Nagios 3.x)

vi nagios.cfg

check_external_commands=1

And then restart the nagios

In CentOS and Red Hat
/etc/init.d/nagios restart

In Ubuntu and Debian
/etc/init.d/nagios3 restart

Now, try again to install vshell by hitting ./install.php file of vshell directory
