Lets go back and check the configs:

Show us the command defined in /etc/nagios3/objects/command.cfg

Show us the service defined in /etc/nagios3/objects/services/check_pgactivity.cfg

Also what is the output of:

Code: Select all

grep -R 'check_pgactivity' /etc/nagios3/

[wolf57]

command.cfg and check_pgactivity.cfg are attached files

nagios@montwo:~$ grep -R 'check_pgactivity' /etc/nagios3/
/etc/nagios3/objects/services/check_nrpe.cfg: check_command check_nrpe!check_pgactivity! base253
/etc/nagios3/objects/services/check_pgactivity.cfg: service_description check_pgactivity
/etc/nagios3/objects/services/check_pgactivity.cfg: check_command check_pgactivity! -s backends -w 80% -c 95%
/etc/nagios3/objects/services-old/check_pgactivity.cfg: service_description check_pgactivity
/etc/nagios3/objects/services-old/check_pgactivity.cfg: check_command check_pgactivity!5432!backends!80!95
/etc/nagios3/objects/commands.cfg: command_name check_pgactivity
/etc/nagios3/objects/commands.cfg: command_line $USER1$/check_pgactivity -h $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$

It's possible this old config file is being read in and overwritting the first one:

/etc/nagios3/objects/services-old/check_pgactivity.cfg

Try moving it to /tmp and the restart nagios service.

[wolf57]

I don't see how it can, It gets the info from nagios.cfg. I did move the whole directory out of /etc/nagios3/object but still getting the same error

[Box293]

Are you using Nagios XI ?

[wolf57]

Nagios3 version 3.2.3-3ubuntu1.1 This is an Ubuntu 12.04 server, I used apt-get to install Nagios

[Box293]

In the left pane under System click Configuration
Select Services
Click Continue
In the top right type in check_pgactivity
Click Update
Can you send a screenshot of that
You might need two as it will get wide
Click the Check Command (it's a hyperlink)
Can you send a screenshot of that

Please make sure you are posting in the correct section of the forum. The XI section of the forum should be used for XI questions. I will be moving this to the Core section.

I'm no longer able to send PDF file, its been deactivated. If I try to attach as rich text it fails after the download. Not sure why this was turned off
