I have been able to successfully install ossec web UI. unfortunately it does not display any log or integrity checking logs. what could possibly be the issue.
attached are screenshots of the web UI

This project is not maintIned, there may be no one willing to support it. First thing to check is permissions

[ax-cap]

Verify the permissions. On linux:

ls -lh /var/ossec

TMP must have ROOT WWW-DATA.

if it doen't have it, change it:

chown root:www-data /var/ossec

also, change owner of the ossec-wui folder:

chown-R root:www-data /var/www/html/ossec-wui

www-data is the user for running apache2 service on debian/ubuntu. To find out who is running apache2 service, use the next command:

ps aux | egrep '(apache|httpd)'

change www-data to the user that run apache service.

at last, check Selinux. Selinux can avoid the access from apache to ossec.
