Nagios XI 2014R2.1 Upgrade

cat /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe

# description: NRPE (Nagios Remote Plugin Executor)
service nrpe
{
flags = REUSE
type = UNLISTED
port = 5666
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = nagios
group = nagios
server = /usr/sbin/nrpe
server_args = -c /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg --inetd
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
# only_from = 127.0.0.1 IP_of_NagiosXI_Server
}

I am attaching the nrpe.cfg file.

When I run the check_nrpe -H <ip_of_SLES_Server> I get this message: CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake.

Nmap scans shows that port is open:
Starting Nmap 5.51 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2015-01-07 08:00 EST

I would like to verify that NRPE is installed in the correct folder.

Can you run these commands

Code: Select all

ll /usr/local/nagios/bin/
ll /usr/local/nagios/etc/

When you run the check_nrpe command, you need to add the -4 on the command line, try this and post the results.

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/check_nrpe -H <ip address of the SUSE server> -4

I just found out that they just released a new version of the linux nrpe agent that fixes the SLES 11 installation problems that you are having.
Here is the manual on how to install it.
http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... _Agent.pdf

Make sure that you remove the old installation from the /tmp folder before you try to reinstall the new agent.

It looks like nrpe was installed using a repo, was that done?
If so you should remove that first before recompiling the new linux nrpe agent

[jkinning]

Well, I think the SLES install still needs work.

I started on a new SLES server and when I try to run the fullinstall I get this message again:
ERROR: Could not determine OS. Please make sure lsb_release is installed or your OS info is in /etc/os-release.

So I create the file /etc/os-release since the script doesn't look at /etc/SuSE-release with the NAME="SUSE Linux" and it didn't work so I tried without the quotes NAME=SUSE Linux still nada. So I finally just made it SUSE and modified the fullinstall script to also just use SUSE. BINGO! It started to work.

But then again I had issues with the 2-usergroups and the nagios group not getting created. So I manually created the nagios group and remove -a from these lines:
eval "$usermodbin" -a -G "$nagioscmdgroup" "$nagiosuser"
eval "$usermodbin" -a -G "$nagiosgroup" "$nagiosuser"

Then the script runs and appears to compile everything but then
===================
INSTALLATION ERROR!
===================
Installation step failed - exiting.
Check for error messages in the install log (install.log).

If you require assistance in resolving the issue, please include install.log
in your communications with Nagios XI technical support.

The script that failed was: './A-subcomponents'

I am attaching the install.log.

[tgriep]

That's bad news.

Can you run this and post the output?

Code: Select all

ll /etc
cat /etc/*release

[jkinning]

I manually created the os-release file it is not there by default.

Code: Select all

Can you run this and post it?

Code: Select all

cat /tmp/linux-nrpe-agent/2-usersgroups

The NRPE install script utilizes the lsb_release cmd located in /usr/bin/lsb_release. The fullinstall script invokes get-os-info which looks at the output of lsb_release -si to determine the distro.

To make the install script work (which we have duplicated a successful install of the linux NRPE agent on both SLES and openSUSE 11.3), you need to remove the /etc/*release file that you created, and install the following package:

Code: Select all

yast2 -i lsb-release

remove the /tmp/linux-nrpe-agent folder, untar the file, and rerun the fullinstall script.

Hey...I am getting further. I still don't think it should be this difficult.

How did you over come the libopenssl-devel?
