Check_nt process returns service not running in GUI

[xerez]

Hi, I am trying monitoring a process (explorer.exe) from a computer, but in the Nagios GUI the field "Status Information" shows "Explorer.exe: not running".

However I when execute this command:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nt -H <IP> -p 12489 -s <password> -v PROCSTATE -d SHOWALL -l explorer.exe

It returns:

Code: Select all

explorer.exe: Running

I know that this proccess is running. Any solution?

Thanks!

in the Nagios GUI the field "Status Information" shows "Explorer.exe: not running".

I am interested to know if the status is 'OK' or 'Critical'.

Can you post the appropriate portions of your commands.cfg and your host config file?

What happens if your run the following command as the user 'nagios'?

Code: Select all

su - nagios

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nt -H <IP> -p 12489 -s <password> -v PROCSTATE -d SHOWALL -l explorer.exe

Finally I got to fix it. In windows.cfg I changed "Explorer.exe" for "explorer.exe" and it worked.

Thanks for your reply.
