NRPE: unable to read output from check_mysql

[ebp12100]

This is showing up as an unknown service, and I'm baffled as to what I'm missing. What suggestions could you toss my way on fixing this? 2 attachments included, showing the nagios interface

many thanks!

Can you please post the service definition for this service?

[ebp12100]

This is from the harveywptest.cfg file on my Nagios server:

define service{
use generic-service
host_name harveywptest
service_description MySQL
check_command check_nrpe!check_mysql
contact_groups linux-admins,linux-admins-text
}

Please let me know what additional information you might need...thanks!

On the machine you're trying to check mysql against, can you switch to the nagios user(assuming that's the user you're running NRPE as), and try to run the check_mysql plugin?

I have moved this into the Nagios Core section of the forum as it is not a Logserver question. Please take care to post in the correct sections in the future.
