NSCA Errors

Post by BanditBBS »

Getting quite a few of these on my 2012 server:

Code: Select all

Sending to NSCA daemon: Error: Server closed connection before init packet was received
Error: Could not read init packet from server
The errors are on the remote machines trying to send packets back to the nagios server, not on the nagios server itself.

Yeah, that didn't help. Finally I listed all the processes running and saw a huge amount of old(month or more) nsca ones listed. I killed all of them and everything seems good again.

Close it up. I'm working as fast as possible to get my customers off of this server and onto my new one that uses all active checks(thank god)!
