Not able to place servers into maintenance mode

[bsivavani]

I tried to extract last two backups (16th and 15th) to see the htpasswd.users file, but I am still seeing the same output

[root@XXXX etc]# pwd
/store/backups/bak_april16/nagiosxi.1523822341/usr/local/nagiosxi/etc
[root@XXXX etc]#

[root@XXXX etc]# cat htpasswd.users
...
PROCESSED 0 COMMANDS
[root@XXXX etc]#

Is there any way to get this file ?

The file is supposed to be dynamically created when you create user and they update their passwords

I guess all I can suggest is going back further.

I tried to create new user from Admin --> manage users, but the htpasswd.users file not updating.

My guess is because it isn't in a valid format
you can try blanking it out first by running

Code: Select all

cat /dev/null > /usr/local/nagiosxi/etc/htpasswd.users

Thanks for your help. We were able to fix the issue by replacing the backup htpasswd.users file.

Glad you were able to get it resolved!
