Step #01: Check your server upto date and ip address using below command

[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# ip r
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# yum install epel-release -y
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# yum -y update

Step #02: Now download zabbix 5.0 repo from official web site.

[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# rpm -Uvh https://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/5.0/rhel/7/x86_64/zabbix-release-5.0-1.el7.noarch.rpm
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# yum clean all
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# yum install zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-agent
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# yum install centos-release-scl

Edit [zabbix+frontend] this section from below location. This option by default not enable.

and then save this file.

[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# yum -y install mariadb-server
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# systemctl start mariadb
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# systemctl enable mariadb

Create zabbix database and import default database. By default mysql root password is blank if you not setup.

[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# mysql -u root -p

After mysql terminal then run below command.

MariaDB [(none)]> create database zabbix_db character set utf8 collate utf8_bin;
MariaDB [(none)]> create user zabbix_user@localhost identified by 'passw0rd123';
MariaDB [(none)]> grant all privileges on zabbix_db.* to zabbix_user@localhost;
MariaDB [(none)]> flush privileges;
MariaDB [(none)]> \q

Import default Zabbix 5.0 database using below command. Run this command then type password for zabbix_user

[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# zcat /usr/share/doc/zabbix-server-mysql*/create.sql.gz | mysql -uzabbix_user -p zabbix_db

Step #04: Edit Zabbix server configuration file this is important

[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# vi /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf

Edit below details into conf file. If this is missing so you can’t start Zabbix service.

DBName=zabbix_db
DBUser=zabbix_user
DBPassword=passw0rd123

Select your location time zone from below file.

[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# vi /etc/opt/rh/rh-php72/php-fpm.d/zabbix.conf

See this file is last line. comment out last line and enter your local time zone.

Step #05: Start all service and setup firewall allow web port and zabbix service port.

[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# systemctl restart zabbix-server zabbix-agent httpd rh-php72-php-fpm
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# systemctl enable zabbix-server zabbix-agent httpd rh-php72-php-fpm
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# firewall-cmd --add-service={http,https} --permanent
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# firewall-cmd --add-port={10051/tcp,10050/tcp} --permanent
[root@Zabbix-Srv ~]# firewall-cmd --reload
