Hi ;

I am seeing the below message on nagios GUI. I have attached the screen shot for your reference.

Code: Select all


[[email protected] var]#  cd  /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/

drwxrwxr-x.  2 nagios nagios 4096 Dec 10 00:23 ./

Please also PM over your profile, as this may have a bit of indication as to what's going on.

We'll have to fix this 'profile build failed error' before proceeding as we really need to see a profile.

This problem is occurring because the required sudoers entries are missing. Follow the steps in this doc and let us know if you run into any problems.

It looks like the cron jobs are not running on the server and that is one reason for the performance data issues.
Login as root, and run the following to stop and start the cron daemon

Code: Select all

service crond stop
killall -9 crond
service crond start
If the graphs do not start to populate with data, run the following and post the output.

Code: Select all

ps -ef --cols=300
tail -50 /var/log/cron

Re: nagios xi rrd files not being created

Post by tgriep »

It looks like the folder where the cron stores it's files when it runs it missing on the server.
Login as root and run the following to recreate the folder.

Code: Select all

mkdir /var/spool/nagios
chown nagios.nagios /var/spool/nagios
chmod 755 /var/spool/nagios
Restart crond by running

Code: Select all

service crond restart
Hopefully this will fix it for you.
