/var/log/nagios/rw/live doesnt exists

[veenm]

Hi,

After restarting the nagios server broker module " /var/log/nagios/rw/live" is not getting created automatically. Any solution please . Here are the entries in nagios.cfg

broker_module=/usr/lib64/mk-livestatus/livestatus.o /var/log/nagios/rw/live
broker_module=/usr/lib64/mod_gearman/mod_gearman.o config=/etc/mod_gearman/mod_gearman_neb.conf
broker_module=/usr/lib64/pnp4nagios/npcdmod.o config_file=/etc/pnp4nagios/npcd.cfg
event_broker_options=-1

What version of Core is this on? And what livestatus and gearman versions?

[sreinhardt]

What are the permissions on that folder:

Code: Select all

ls -lard /var/log/nagios/rw/

Also let's do a nagios restart and then grab a chunk of the log file (paths may vary as you do not appear to use our stock locations)

Code: Select all

service nagios restart
tail -n 200 /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log >> /tmp/nagios.log

Please send the /tmp/nagios.log file.

Here is the log

We need to see the nagios log from when the nagios process is restarted. I bet there is an issue with the livestatus module. Do a running tail to a log file and then restart nagios. Wait a moment and then kill the tail and post the log contents here:

Code: Select all

tail -f /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log >> /tmp/nagios.log
service nagios restart

Kill the tail with ctrl-c and then post the /tmp/nagios.log file.
