Re: Nagios lock file not being created, but is running

You can close this thread, installing 4.3.4 resolved the issue, just in case anyone else reads this for a fix be sure to set the lock file location in nagiosql to point to /run/nagios.lock as that is where the lock file shows up for me on ubuntu 16.04, nagios 4.3.4.
