Configuration verification Hangs and never completes

[partners.nagios]

I just tried your instructions for good measure but nope, it just hangs on verification.

[scottwilkerson]

Please go to
Configure -> Core Config Manager -> Tools -> Write Config Tool

And walk through the 4 steps, and return the output

Check your configuration file(s) to ensure that they contain valid
directives and data defintions. If you are upgrading from a previous
version of Nagios, you should be aware that some variables/definitions
may have been removed or modified in this version. Make sure to read
the HTML documentation regarding the config files, as well as the
'Whats New' section to find out what has changed.

I was able to manually add the one host "mbo1px-rptdb1 by adding it to the database, but I still can't apply the config.

[scottwilkerson]

Now it is missing a service...

Adding items directly to the database if you don't know what all the dependencies are is really risky, and unsupportable.

[partners.nagios]

yes I know, I was just seeing if the database could be written to at all.

[scottwilkerson]

Was this a new install or was it working before?

I'm thinking if it was a new install that somehow the E-importnagiosql script was never run, if so, can I have you run

Code: Select all

cd /tmp/nagiosxi
rm -f installed.importnagiosql
./E-importnagiosql

[partners.nagios]

I tried running those commands and I received the error Daemons were not configured - run previous script. So I ran D-chkconfigalldaemons. I kept getting errors like this until I ran 0-yum. It started working and then this came up:

Code: Select all

Transaction Check Error:
  installing package kernel-2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.i686 needs 17MB on the /boot filesystem

Error Summary
-------------
Disk Requirements:
  At least 17MB more space needed on the /boot filesystem.

[scottwilkerson]

It looks like you don't have enough space on your /boot partition..

Code: Select all

df /boot

[partners.nagios]

Okay, so I figured it out. I'm running Nagios on a non-standard SSL port. Once I changed everything to 443, it worked. So now I'd like to know how to change from 443 to a non-standard port. Can you help me out with this?

[scottwilkerson]

The documentation we have for SSL is here
http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ios_XI.pdf

For non standard ports, when you modify the /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/config.inc.php file you can change
$cfg['port_number'] = false;
to
$cfg['port_number'] = YOURPORTNUMBER;
