I completed the installation of Nagios 3.3.1 onto an OpenSuSE 11.3 64-bit distribution. I am trying to run the check_mssql script, but whenever I do so the following error message appears on-screen:
UNKNOWN: MSSQL support is not installed on this server.
Prior to running the script, I went through the motions of installing the packages:
php5-devel 5.3.3-0.21.1
php5-odbc 5.3.3-0.21.1
I also installed the freetds 0.91 release. The freetds install was not from package, but from source code due to it not being available as a package.
What other step(s) do I need to take in order to get the check_mssql script to run on the system?
I have made some progress with the script. I decided to start from the beginning, and I did an installation of an Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 32-bit distribution. After the initial installation, I was able to install the php-sybase package, which took care of getting mssql support made available on the server.
The script can be run, but I had a question concerning the username and password options: Should the aforementioned options be the database user account, the local administrator account, or something else? Thanks.
