Unable to start PID - for source

[inas.labib]

we use Nagios NA 2.3.0
we added 2nd source and it was not Running automatically and not showing any PID. please find the screenshot attached with this.

Got below error @ /usr/local/nagiosna/var/backend.log

Could not access /usr/local/nagiosna/var/FW01/9997.pid for killing: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/local/nagiosna/var/FW01/9997.pid'

Once we restart nagiosna service, 2nd source device started showing netflow data.
Please advice every time we add new source , need to restart the service ? or any fix for this.

Without seeing your source definition, did you specify a unique port for the second source? It cannot be the same as any other source.

Thanks @eloyd.

@inas.labib did you confirm what @eloyd asked?

Also time you add a source you need to save and apply configurations this would restart NNA in the process.

Please confirm what @eloyd mentioned.

We specified unique port for second resource.
we could see only "Create source" button while adding new source. may i know where is the "Apply configuration"

[dwasswa]

After creating new source,you can simply use start button in the UI but if it doesn't work, you just restart the back-end and it should apply the configurations.

This is how you restart it from terminal:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosna/bin/nagiosna start

This is how you restart it from terminal:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/agiosna/bin/nagiosna start

Presumably, that should be:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosna/bin/nagiosna start

[dwasswa]

Thanks @ eloyd.

Sorry about the spelling error.

[inas.labib]

After adding new source, start button in the UI is not working.
so we need to restart the back-end to apply the configurations every time ? or is there any solution to avoid manual restart. please confirm

Have you tried changing the port? --> Source page --> Edit --> change port --> Save

Can you show us some of your system message logs?

Code: Select all

tail -100 /var/log/messages

Also your permissions on this directory

Code: Select all

ll /usr/local/nagiosna/var/
