Nagios Core not running after install

Post by charpham »

Hi I am new to Nagios
I have Nagios 4.3.4 on centOS 7 running plugins 2.2.1. When I go to the web home page page it says it is not running.
if I look at the log files I see the following

[1513969021] Nagios 4.3.4 starting... (PID=32128)
[1513969021] Local time is Fri Dec 22 13:57:01 EST 2017

[1513971339] Error: Failed to initialize query handler. Aborting
When I go to this directory ".../nagios/var/rw" there is no such directory

One thing to note in the install docs (https://support.nagios.com/kb/article/n ... tml#CentOS) for 4.3.4 and plugins 2.2.1, it says to get the install plugins from "https://github.com/nagios-plugins/nagio ... 2.1.tar.gz" this does not exist so I had to go to "nagios-plugins.org/downloads to get this.. however from the install after taring the file, it says to run "sudo ./tools/setup" this directory/file does not exist.. I was able to run howerver "sudo ./configure, sudo make and sudo make install"

any help would greatly be appreciated

There was no 2.2.1.tar.gz release? Was there a spelling error when you ran it maybe? It works for me.

Code: Select all

When you ran sudo ./tools/setup, you did cd into the nagios-plugins directory correct?

Could you show us the contents in the nagios-plugins directory?

Code: Select all

ls-la /tmp/nagios-plugins
Change the path if yours is different, and show us the output. Thanks!
