Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing
Posted: Tue Jun 11, 2013 11:32 am
Just finished installing 3.5 with the 1.4.16 plugins on CentOS 6. However, when I installed the plugins I noticed some errors while running "make" and "make install" A little bit of background:
I used the quickstart guide on the website for Fedora as instructed but ran into a problem running the make command while installing Nagios. Being new to CentOS I found that make was not installed by default. Around that time I downloaded the nagios install pdf. Make started to work but I skipped over to the the pdf instead on continuing with the web based quickstart. Reviewing both documents they have me downloading things to different sections (tmp dir in one and downloads dir in the other. Once I completed the install I get the "Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing" on my localhost checks. I checked some forums that directed me to check the libexec folder for plugins (such as check_ping). I found none. I stopped the nagios service and reran through the PDF instructions on installing the plugins. But the plugins are not installing in libexec as far as I can tell.
Is there a way to get the plugins installed? If not, is there a way to wipe out Nagios and start from scratch...this time using just the one guide?
I'm a Linux novice and a Nagios novice so please go easy on me
