Nagios Support Forum

After updating to 4.4.5 recently, seeing a problem on the service restart: group write permissions are removed from the passive check results directory, .. i.e.: Required: drwxrwsr-x 1 nagios nagcmd 92 Jan 7 11:06 nagios/ On restart: drwxr-sr-x 1 nagios nagcmd 92 Jan 7 11:06 nagios/ Which, of course...

Configuration: * Remove Windows server with NCPA configured and working * NRDP configured and working on Nagios Core server * Passive checks being received (per NCPA logs) * Three checks showing "Green" on Nagios Core Services for that Host * Host status is stuck "Pending", "...

FYI, .. after some experimentation this appears to work: ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: nagios # Required-Start: $local_fs $syslog $network # Required-Stop: $local_fs $syslog $network # Short-Description: Start and Stop Nagios monitoring server # Description: Nagios is is a service monitoring syste...

Installed 4.1.1 from source on debian, .. same problem; the init script in the Exchange DNW either.

Would anyone have an 'installable' init script for Debian 7.1?

You are looking for the traditional init scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d, and they are gone? No, some are still there - I was just reporting the differences. If init scripts are still supposed to work, why does the nagios init script not? Is there a way to get the nagios init script running on systemd?

Do init scripts no longer work at all in SUSE?

It appears that 13.2 is a major transition, .. for example, there are 30 files in init.d on 13.2, whereas 13.1 has about 70. Most of the entries in a 13.2 installation are avahi, boot.___, ppoe, raw, rpmconfigcheck, snmp, & xfs.

Doing some more research, .. it appears the issue may be the migration to systemd, .. if so, would not an option in the source tree be beneficial? [Will update issue on github.]

I attached it, .. but did not notice the "this extension is not allowed"???

Can do, .. here is the current script.

Recently upgraded a 3.5.1 machine to 4.1RC1, and I thought everything was OK until last Friday when there was a power issue; the server rebooted and I could not get Nagios started. service nagios start consistently returns: # service nagios status nagios.service - LSB: Starts and stops the Nagios mo...
