Setting up OpenStatus
Right, So I'm trying to setup OpenStatus on my LEB, but once again my Linux skills are lacking.
I followed the complete process described here; http://openstatus.nickmoeck.com/install
I was unsure which one to install (server or client) so Installed the server one.
Step6 is giving me headaches. I edited my nginx config file (in the sites-enabled folder) exactly like the example configuration, but it is giving me a 404 Not Found.
I guess it has something to do that I need to replace 'SCRIPTNAME' with the name of the/a script.. but with what?
Also, I now have my nginx setup that way that I can only use it as OpenStatus. Can I add that configuration script just below the default 'server' configuration? (I hope you get what I mean).
Thanks!

Post your nginx config file here, wrap it in < pre > tags.
OpenStatus Server goes on the server that's going to monitor your other servers. OpenStatus Client goes on the servers that you want to monitor.
As for your nginx config file - you don't have to replace SCRIPT_FILENAME with anything. For a basic setup, that configuration can be copied directly, replacing openstatus.yourdomain.com with a domain or subdomain that is pointed to your server. If you don't have a domain or subdomain pointed to your server and want to just use the IP address of the server instead, you can omit the entire "server_name" line.
If you have other sites being served up by nginx, I recommend putting openstatus' config in a separate configuration file, and using a subdomain. It's a bit messy to put openstatus in a subdirectory, such as yourdomain.com/openstatus/ right now because I have hard-coded some paths, which causes some stuff to not work correctly (but that will be fixed in the next release).
