I found a link that says the following perl module (IO::Compress::Zlib::Extra) needs to be updated.
Login to the server as root and run the following command to do that.
tgriep - I ran the perl module update which completed, ran the command again and this time i don't get an error but command does not return anything either, just waiting for input... ive attached screenshot
ssax - thanks for the suggestion but my username nor password contain special characters, however i tried it with single quotes but that did not help.
It looks like if you do not specify a Virtual Machine, or a Datastore, etc., the plugin will walk through all of the hosts and guests in your VMWare network so it could take a long time to run.
Try using specific guests, datastores in the command and that should make it run faster.

Excellet!
it worked when running on my server
[root@someserver ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_esx3.pl --hostIP 10.10.xx.xx --dataType Datastore --datacenter /vmfs/volumes/somedatastore_01 --username user --password pass --warning 80 --critical 90
MYDATASTORE_01 : 84 % Used MYDATASTORE_02 : 83 % Used
now how should my command line looks for it to run on web? i dont think what i have is correct:
thanks that made some progress, i can make checks but returns a warning state with an error (attached picture)
looks like another plugin install/update?
