Problemes after to upgrade to Nagios XI 5.5.2

[morabanc]

Hello,

We have upgrade Nagios to 5.5.2. Since then we're experiencing some issues related to acknolwledge and force check. Problem is not solved restarting nagios process, only restarting the server. A possible clue, when executing /etc/init.d/nagios status, the aswer is nagios is not running, but nagios is running.

Thanks.

Can you show the output of the following:

Code: Select all

grep ^NagiosRunFile /etc/init.d/nagios
grep lock_file /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg

[morabanc]

Hello,

Here the results:

grep ^NagiosRunFile /etc/init.d/nagios
NagiosRunFile=/var/run/nagios.lock

grep lock_file /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
lock_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock

[scottwilkerson]

Lets edit /etc/init.d/nagios
change this

Code: Select all

NagiosRunFile=/var/run/nagios.lock

to this

Code: Select all

NagiosRunFile=/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock

the run the following

Code: Select all

service nagios stop
killall -9 nagios
rm -f /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock /var/run/nagios.lock
service nagios start

[morabanc]

I've just run the commands, still the same error. I'm seeing this message at nagios.log
[1534252215] Failed to obtain lock on file /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock: Permission denied
[1534252215] Bailing out due to errors encountered while attempting to daemonize... (PID=19920)

[scottwilkerson]

please post the output of the following

Code: Select all

ls -al /usr/local/nagios/var/

[morabanc]

I seeems there are some problem with permissions, If I apply configuration via the CCM the nagios.lock belons to root user:

ls -l /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Aug 14 15:26 /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock

I must restart nagios via with nagio user and the nagios.lock take the right permissions:
su nagios
/etc/init.d/nagios restart
Stopping nagios: No lock file found in /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock
Starting nagios: done.
exit
ls -l /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock
-rw-r--r-- 1 nagios users 6 Aug 14 15:29 /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock

Same behaviour, when restarting nagios via cli (with root user) or via CCM nagio.lock belongs to root:

chown nagios.nagios /usr/local/nagios/var/
[root@nagiosxi rari01c]# /etc/init.d/nagios restart
Stopping nagios: .done.
Starting nagios: done.
[root@nagiosxi rari01c]# ls -l /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Aug 14 15:57 /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock
