Consulta Nagvis

[alex3105]

Dear..

I have implemented Nagios Core 4.4.1 in Centos 7, with PNP4 and Nagvis .. in the latter I have errors and I would be grateful if you could guide me since I am not very expert in Centos .. and although it is true there is a Nagvis forum because the truth that I have not even found the solution ... I would appreciate if you could guide me if necessary to reinstall it.

Unable to connect to livestatus socket. The socket /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/live in backend live_1 does not exist. Maybe Nagios is not running or restarting.

This last file does not exist and I followed the guide to recreate it but it is not created and the problem persists.


Best regards.

NagVis required you have a backend installed which is either ndoutils or live status

For ndoutils you can follow this guide
https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=406

Then in the Nagvis UI you would change the backend to ndo

I have installed live status following this link

http://blog.kevintijssen.eu/how-to-inst ... -centos-7/

since I seemed more updated,but I have mistakes, could you guide me to see how to correct

[scottwilkerson]

We can try. Livestatus isn't our project, so you would have to describe the error you are seeing

[alex3105]

The error message that I have is the following:

Unable to connect to livestatus socket. The socket /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/live in backend live_1 does not exist. Maybe Nagios is not running or restarting.


Please.. Could you tell me if you have steps to reinstall it in Centos 7

[scottwilkerson]

You said you followed the guide above but this guide has nothing to do with livestatus, it is for installing Check_MK.

Same author, different tool.

I'm sorry .. this is the link used ..

https://mathias-kettner.com/checkmk_livestatus.html

and this is the error that comes out when I use nagvis .. I would appreciate the support to solve it:

Unable to connect to livestatus socket. The socket /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/live in backend live_1 does not exist. Maybe Nagios is not running or restarting.

can you run this against your nagios.cfg and show the results

Code: Select all

grep broker /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg

[alex3105]

The result is attached:

#Controls what (if any) data gets sent to the event broker
#This directive is used to specify an event broker module that should
# broker_mopdule =/somewhere/module1.o
#broker_module=/somewhere/module2.o arg1 arg2=3 debug=0
# 64 = Event broker

[scottwilkerson]

According to the document you linked, you are supposed to add the following to your nagios.cfg

Code: Select all

broker_module=/usr/local/lib/mk-livestatus/livestatus.o /var/lib/nagios/rw/live
event_broker_options=-1

then restart nagios
