Scheduling Downtime

[orani]

i try to schedule a downtime and i get this

Code: Select all

Error: Could not stat() command file '/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd'!

The external command file may be missing, Nagios may not be running, and/or Nagios may not be checking external commands.

An error occurred while attempting to commit your command for processing.

Return from whence you came

Any ideas???

Is Nagios running when this happened?

/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd only exists when the process is running.

Other possibilities are the user you were running the command as did not have permission to write to the pipe.

I was trying with nagiosadmin and i couldn't.

I restarted nagios service a couple of times and worked fine.

Mark as solved
