Bug Description
Binary package hint: nagvis
When you install nagios3/
Error: "Instance name "default" in backend "ndomy1" is not valid."
The install doesnt have a configure script, so you have to configure manually to generic defaults, but it still errors.
Edit file - /etc/nagvis/
; in this example the ID of the Backend is "ndomy_1" you can define another ID.
[backend_ndomy_1]
; type of backend - MUST be set
backendtype="ndomy"
; hostname for NDO-db
dbhost=localhost
; portname for NDO-db
dbport=3306
; database name for NDO-db
dbname=ndoutils
; username for NDO-db
dbuser=root
; password for NDO-db
dbpass=XXXXX
; prefix for tables in NDO-db
dbprefix="nagios_"
; instance name for tables in NDO-db
dbinstancename=
; maximum delay of the NDO Database in seconds
maxtimewithoutu
; path to the cgi-bin of this backend

You also have to set ENABLE_NDOUTILS=1 in /etc/default/
Another gotcha is the default database name and username/password combo for NDOUtils and NagVis differ, so if you just okay through the dialogs, as I did at first, then NagVis can't talk to the NDOUtils DB either.
