Hi,
i use Nagios Core 3.2.3 and i get the error message like in the subject line.
This works fine till yesterday.
I have restart the server where the check runs….
This is my cmd:
$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c check_vmfs_datastore_vmcbdf01 -t 60
And this the entry in the nsclient.ini:
check_vmfs_datastore_vmcbdf01=cmd /c echo scripts\check_vmfs_datastore_vmcbdf01.ps1 | PowerShell.exe -Command -
What can i do?
Regards
Dennis

Here's a related KB article:
https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=518
There's a section with some troubleshooting steps specific to NSClient++ that you can attempt.
Also a related forums post:

It would also be useful to know which versions of the check_nrpe plugin and NSClient++ agent you're using.

Re: check_nrpe invalid packet type received from server
Hi,
i use NSClient 0.5.2035 on a Windows Server 2016.
I set this in the [/settings/NRPE/server] section on my nsclient.ini.
payload length=8192
Then this in my NagiosQL (see attachment).
Now i get this error:
No output returned from Plugin
Strange thing is that this works and i did no changes……..
On another server this works fine.

Re: check_nrpe invalid packet type received from server
What version of the check_nrpe plugin are you using?
Depending on the version, they could not accept a large size payload as you specified.
Try setting the payload to 1024 and see if that works.

One more thing, add this under the NRPE settings in the nsclient.ini file.
Code: Select all
extended response = 1

Re: check_nrpe invalid packet type received from server
That old version of the plugin, the buffer size was 2048.
Maybe NSClient++ just needed to be restarted.
