Crashes Nagios when I remove a Host

[CapitanG]

Hi, I have Nagios core 4.3.4 on CentOS 7 server. It crashes when I remove a Windows Host. I go to the /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/hosts/sharepoint.cfg (this is where all sharepoint hosts are) then I remove the block that belongs to the server I want to remove. when I run the command /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/nagios.cfg it says no such a path! and it crashed the web interface.
Please help-- Thank you

Hi @CapitanG,

It looks like there's a file path issue here. Can you verify the following:

1. The nagios.cfg is in the correct location - /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/nagios.cfg

2. The Nagios configuration file contains a definition for the object configuration file - cfg_file = /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/hosts/sharepoint.cfg

3. Nagios is installed in the correct location ls /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios

If you not able to get it working, please post your nagios.cfg file for us to review.

Hello, thank you for the reply.
1. Nagios.cfg is not in correct location. It is in /usr/local/Nagios/etc/Nagios.cfg
2. Nagios configuration file is missing the "hosts/sharepoint.cfg"
3. Yes, Nagios is installed in the correct location /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios.
I corrected the reply.

The verification command should be

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
