Zabbix Frontend Issue on Ubuntu 14.04: 404 Error Encountered

Accessing the Zabbix web frontend on Ubuntu 14.04 returns a 404 error. Apache log snippet:

[05/Jul/2021:12:30:45 +0000] "GET /zabbix-ui HTTP/1.1" 404 512 "-" "ClientApp/2.0"

Need assistance troubleshooting the Apache–Zabbix connection.

I encountered a similar issue while working on a different version of Zabbix. In my experience, a 404 error often results from Apache not correctly mapping the Zabbix directory. It is useful to examine the Apache configuration files to ensure that the alias for the Zabbix frontend matches its installation directory. Misalignment between the configuration and the actual file location is a common pitfall. Also, reviewing your document root permissions and restarting Apache after changes can resolve this error. This troubleshooting approach led me to a solution in my previous setup.

hey, sometimes the issue is due to a misconfigred alias in the apache conf. double-check your zabbix path and ensure the needed modules are enabled. also, check file permissions. hoping this helps resolve it!

hey, im thinkin it might be a path mismatch issue in the apache config. maybe the alias is pointing to the wrong folder name on your system. have you tried verifying the folder structure? anyone else run into a similar misauth?

I experienced a similar issue where the root cause was a subtle misconfiguration in the Apache settings. I found that verifying the exact paths used in the Alias directive and confirming that they precisely match the location where the Zabbix files are stored helped resolve the problem. It is also worth reviewing the permissions on these directories, as minor oversights can prevent Apache from accessing the content. Careful inspection of the error logs provided additional insight, which ultimately led me to adjust the configuration and successfully restore the frontend access.
