Check_MK - Livestatus not loading in Nagios

[mscf]

So, I have installed Nagios 4 (its working just fine) and I'm looking at setting up Thunk. So before that, i'm working on getting Livestatus working. I went through the install (just did the full check_mk install) and it seems to be working. I can run cmk command line queries. But when I load nagios and try to use Thunk's back end configuration I get messages about the connection being refused.

In my nagios.cfg I have added:

Code: Select all

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

/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/live was created after restarting nagios, so that seems to be working.

Here are my livestatus errors in Nagios (I left out everything before the livestatus notifications): http://pastebin.com/j3jAiXPc

Is this path correct?

Code: Select all

/usr/lib/check_mk/livestatus.o

Can you run:

Code: Select all

locate livestatus.o

and show us the output?
What is the nagios version that you are currently running?

[mscf]

Yes, that path is correct. I can see the file there.

When I enter location livestatus.o, nothing happens.

This looks like your problem

Code: Select all

livestatus: Unable to bind adress /var/log/nagios/rw/live to UNIX socket: No such file or directory

Can you post your nagios.cfg

[mscf]

Sorry about the delay, just got a chance to grab the cfg file. You can view it here: http://pastebin.com/BcjHbJUA

What is the nagios version that you are currently running?

I tried to respond to the second part of your question earlier, but I guess since I'm new it still hasn't passed the moderators. None the less, the version is 4.0.8

And one other wrinkle. Since I've started working on this, I haven't been watching my Nagios monitor. Now its not working either. Throwing up an error that says "Error: Could not read host and service status information!" whenever I try to view anything. And when I try to restart the service, I get "Stopping nagios:/etc/init.d/nagios: 140: kill: No such process".

You have the following in your nagios.cfg twice

Code: Select all

broker_module=/usr/lib/check_mk/livestatus.o /var/log/nagios/rw/live
event_broker_options=-1

You for sure should remove one of them
