Nagios Support Forum

Ok, sell if anyone else has this issue, you aren't screwed. steps I took: sudo groupadd nagcmd sudo usermod -aG nagcmd nagios sudo usermod -aG nagcmd apache sudo chown -R nagios:nagcmd /usr/local/nagios/var/rw sudo chmod 2775 /usr/local/nagios/var/rw sudo systemctl restart nagios sudo systemctl rest...

rhel 9.7, core 4.5.11 So, whatever nagios install doc I used, didn't mention the nagcmd group. So, I went on my merry way and get everything installed, and everything works, except command through the webui. Which apparently requires nagcmd. I tried just adding the group and adding nagios and apache...

Well I think I managed to get it. One thing that rhel 9 needs is s-nail, which used to be mailx.
Once I add that, it made whatever link it needed between nagios and postfix.

New install of nagios core 4.5.11 on rhel 9.7 I have core set up, it works for almost everything for hosts, a few things don't yet, but that's beside the point, right now. I have postfix installed, and I can send messages through it. My issue is getting nagios to send the notification emails. I have...

Well, I can dig and nslookup, so dns should be ok.
I didn't think that would be the issue, since it resolved fine, before the upgrade from rhel 6 to 7.
Core version is 4.5. I supposed it could just be a plugin config. Not entirely sure how to check plugin version.

Ran into an issue with the check_http plugin. /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -H "website.com" No route to host HTTP CRITICAL - Unable to open TCP socket If I take out the website name, and put in the IP, it works. HTTP OK: HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently - 299 bytes in 0.375 second re...

Yes, I can run the dig command as the nagios user.
I get a successful answer.

Just so it's here: this is the contents of check_dns_zone. I had to change the server names, to appease my security overloards. #!/bin/bash slave01=$(/usr/bin/dig @slave01.domain.com $1 SOA +short +notcp +time=1 +tries=1 +retry=1 | /bin/cut -d' ' -f3) slave02=$(/usr/bin/dig @slave02.domain.com $1 SO...

So, a bit of background. My nagios core, working on upgrading from rhel 6.10. nagios core 4.4.6. I have nagios configured to check dns on a dns master server. It checks the named files. These 2 files are modified, which then propagates down to the dns slaves. The dns master server was rhel 6.10. I u...

Thanks, I will take a loot at that documentation. I would have responded sooner, but when you live up north, this is a good time of year for vacation!
