Troubleshooting

Wazuh agent wont appear in to the system/admin-page

1st: test that you have connection open to the wazuh server: open terminal and run telnet to test the connection: telnet wazuh-agent.aholadigital.com 1515

if connection is OK it should read: Trying 37.27.41.231... Connected to wazuh-agent.aholadigital.com.

If connection is ok there is probably something wrong with the config files. Easiest is to remove the agent installation and re-install it. With linux you should "purge uninstall" command: apt-get remove --purge wazuh-agent

Check that all the config files are OK

Most common errors is the missing agent name in the ossec.conf and the reg password are missing check the ossec.conf file: in linux: sudo cat /var/ossec/etc/ossec.conf in macos: sudo cat /Library/Ossec/etc/ossec.conf and check that you have these lines there: YourName

[wazuh-agent.aholadigital.com](http://wazuh-agent.aholadigital.com)

etc/authd.pass

check the reg password file: in linux: sudo cat /var/ossec/etc/authd.pass in macos: sudo cat /Library/Ossec/etc/authd.pass and make sure you have the same password there that you have in the installation script.
