Originally created by @wizygr on GitHub (Aug 1, 2013).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/telephone/LookingGlass/issues/15

Installed on CentOS 6 with PHP 5.3.25 using Apache 2.2.15.

'host' and 'traceroute' commands give results just fine. However 'mtr' and 'ping' commands, don't. The results box is displayed almost immediately after pressing the button but it is empty. I would expect an error message...

Both utilities are also normally installed:

[root@host lg]# l /usr/sbin/mtr ; l /bin/ping
-rwsr-xr-x. 1 root root 59384 Aug 17 2010 /usr/sbin/mtr
-rwsr-xr-x. 1 root root 40760 Jun 5 13:39 /bin/ping

Any ideas on how to debug this further?

Thanks in advance.

Do you have those commands installed on the machine you are running this on?

Yes, of course and they are running fine from the console. However they
produce no output when running through the webpage...

Any help would be appreciated.

I am having the same issue. Commands work via command line but nothing outputs on the web version.

http://m9.androidfilehost.com/

No output from any tool.

Any ideas?

Ya not sure what to check. I've changed a few files permissions but no change. Owner/group doesnt seem to fix it either.

Also upgraded to php 5.4.26 but didnt fix it either

Might as well be related to network configuration. What type of control panel do you use? Is it SolusVM?

Were there any errors while installing the whole thing? Try to remove the entire directory and download/run the script again.

I remember running into into similar issue back then, but my problem was related to the network configuration.

Nope no errors and I have redone the install multiple times. Also have tried removing the whole directory and installing again.

Not sure what is causing it. Everything is working great on the vps. Just made it this morning. This seems to be the only thing not working.

Very odd.

Looks like development haulted on the v2. Still under dev and hasn't been touched in a year.

Would like to get this one working. Will be very handy to help diagnose issues with the users.

@telephone commented on GitHub (Apr 5, 2014):

@bpvarsity Your issue is more than likely caused by permission errors. That is, your 'www' user cannot access the commands as they're set to require root-privileges.

Here's an example on how to fix:

# chmod u-s /bin/ping
# setcap cap_net_raw+ep /bin/ping

# chmod u-s /bin/ping6
# setcap cap_net_raw+ep /bin/ping6

# chmod u-s /bin/traceroute
# setcap cap_net_raw+ep /bin/traceroute

# chmod u-s /bin/traceroute6
# setcap cap_net_raw+ep /bin/traceroute6

You may be able to fix the problem by only using the chmod command, but if you need the setcap you'll need to install libcap first.

For Ubuntu I fixed the permission errors by running "sudo chmod u+s which ping" for the necessary commands.

I got centos to work with lookingglass. It was a issue with the control panel installed on the server.

Not able to get the commands to work on gentoo with nginx. Anyone have any luck with gentoo?

Thanks

You probably don't disable SELinux

Please use this command for CentOS 6: setenforce 0

Should be SELinux permission problem.
It pings well on all my CentOS 6 vps, but couldn't ping on any of my CentOS 7 vps (RHEL7 is SELinux enforced).

I don't like the idea to turn SELinux all off. But I haven't figured out which values should be changed using setsebool command.
