Nagiosxi Client Installation

[lmichel]

I having issues starting the nrpe agent on Solaris 11.
it is throwing that error:
[ May 1 13:17:33 Executing start method ("/lib/svc/method/nrpe start"). ]
ld.so.1: nrpe: fatal: libssl.so.0.9.7: open failed: No such file or directory
/lib/svc/method/nrpe: line 10: 7155: Killed
[ May 1 13:17:33 Method "start" exited with status 9. ]


I do have both libssl on the machine but it is a much higher version.
can you please advise?

Did you already install the nagios plugins? If you could run the following, it could be very helpful:

Code: Select all

ldd /opt/nagios/libexec/check_http

The above can be adjusted to wherever the check_http plugin resides. We want to see if it's pointing at the proper libssl directories. Do you see results similar to the following?

Code: Select all

libssl.so.0.9.8 => (file not found)
libcrypto.so.0.9.8 => (file not found)

If so, you can specify -R in LDFLAGS at configure time:

Code: Select all

LDFLAGS=-R/usr/local/ssl/lib ./configure –prefix=/opt/nagios –with-mysql=/opt/coolstack/mysql_32bit –with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl

libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/sfw/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
libm.so.2 => /lib/libm.so.2

[lmichel]

it cannot start because that specific library cannot be found.

[jolson]

Where is the 'libz.so.1' file located?

Code: Select all

find /. -name libz.so.1

It looks like your compilation assumed /usr/local/lib/libz.so.1, which may not be correct.

[lmichel]

there are multiple locations for this file and here they are:
/lib/libz.so.1
/lib/amd64/libz.so.1
/usr/lib/libz.so.1
/usr/lib/amd64/libz.so.1
/usr/local/lib/libz.so.1

[jolson]

Can you take a look at your history and give us the './configure' command that you used to compile nrpe and nagios plugins?
Is it similar to the following?

Code: Select all

 ./configure –with-ssl=/usr/sfw/ –with-ssl-lib=/usr/sfw/lib/

It seems to me that your configure command didn't compile nrpe/nagios plugins with proper links to the SSL libs. Please let us know that command, and we'll move forward from there.

[lmichel]

i did not run ./configure I ran the ./fullinstall because the package does not contain ./configure

Any update on this.

I have been expecting an answer and up until now, noone has gotten back to me yet.

--- Mon May 04, 2015 8:25 am ---

Can anyone provide an answer for this?

in other words, is anyone out there using Nagios with Solaris 11.
I hope I am not the first one trying to do that.

Please note that our offices are closed on weekends, so posts on Friday evening may not be responded to until Monday morning.

Did you follow the instructions in the NRPE wizard? Specifically these: http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... _Agent.pdf

If so, did you do the workaround steps as well?

There is another doc for installing from source that might work: http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ios-XI.pdf

It's more of a manual install instead of an automatic installation with the fullinstall script, but in this case it will let you specify the locations of the libraries to use.

Was this a clean Solaris system or were there installations before NRPE that might have installed the libraries?

[lmichel]

The Solaris server is an existing server. the first installation option did not work. the second option is more promising. however I am getting the following error when looking at the log:
