Upload check_ad plugin failing

[cwscribner]

Hi all.

I'm trying to upload this plugin: http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Pl ... TK/details

But it fails every time I try to upload it saying that the folder permissions may not be right. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Can you do this on your Nagios XI server?

Code: Select all

ll /usr/local/nagios/

And post the output?

Can you try

Code: Select all

chown nagios.apache /usr/local/nagios/libexec
chmod 775 /usr/local/nagios/libexec

Then try to upload your plugin again?

Just to see if thats the issue?

I managed to upload the .pl file in the archive but it won't take the whole .zip file. Not sure if that will be a problem...

I don't believe uploading only the "check_ad.pl" file will do the trick. We will do some testing and will get back to you.

Any updates on this?

That check_ad plugin has to be used in conjunction with NSClient++. The author of the plugin made this post:

Which gives a pretty good synopsis of what you'll need to do.
