Googling around found this to fix the same problem installing these packages..

Code: Select all

yum clean all
yum erase perl-XML-SAX-Base-1.04-1.el6.rf.noarch

then try again

[benningtonr]

Ok, ran those,
run the install cmds again?

This is strange... Can you run in terminal the following command and show the output?

Code: Select all

yum list installed | grep perl-XML

[benningtonr]

[root@nagios /]# yum list installed | grep perl-XML
perl-XML-Parser.i686 2.36-7.el6 @base
perl-XML-Simple.noarch 2.18-6.el6 @base
[root@nagios /]#

[lmiltchev]

Have you modified your yum repos or install scripts in any way? Can you also run the following command and show the output?

Code: Select all

yum repolist

[benningtonr]

I have not modified them, here is the output:


[root@nagios /]# yum repolist

Ok, lets try one more time, in this order

Code: Select all

yum install perl-XML-SAX -y
yum install perl-Nagios-Plugin libuuid* perl-XML-LibXML -y

[benningtonr]

ok, got the following

Try the command that you were running before and see if it is going to work:

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/nagios/libexec
./check_esx3.pl -D 192.168.99.134 -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/etc/components/vmware/whroesx4_whro_local_auth.txt -l runtime

You may have to reinstall the SDK following our documentation on vmware:

http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ios_XI.pdf

[benningtonr]

[root@nagios /]# cd /usr/local/nagios/libexec
[root@nagios libexec]# ./check_esx3.pl -D 192.168.99.134 -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/etc/components/vmware/whroesx4_whro_local_auth.txt -l runtime
ESX3 UNKNOWN - Missing perl module VMware::VIRuntime. Download and install 'VMware Infrastructure (VI) Perl Toolkit', available at http://www.vmware.com/download/sdk/

Download the latest version of Perl Toolkit from VMware support page.
In this example we use VMware-vSphere-SDK-for-Perl-4.0.0-161974.x86_64.tar.gz,
but the instructions should apply to newer versions as well.

Upload the file to your op5 Monitor server's /root dir and execute:

cd /root
tar xvzf VMware-vSphere-SDK-for-Perl-4.0.0-161974.x86_64.tar.gz
cd vmware-vsphere-cli-distrib/
./vmware-install.pl

Follow the on screen instructions, described below:

"Creating a new vSphere CLI installer database using the tar4 format.

Installing vSphere CLI.

Installing version 161974 of vSphere CLI

You must read and accept the vSphere CLI End User License Agreement to
continue.
Press enter to display it."

<ENTER>

"Read through the License Agreement"
"Do you accept? (yes/no)

yes


"The following Perl modules were found on the system but may be too old to work
with VIPerl:

Crypt::SSLeay
Compress::Zlib"

"In which directory do you want to install the executable files? [/usr/bin]"

<ENTER>

"Please wait while copying vSphere CLI files...

The installation of vSphere CLI 4.0.0 build-161974 for Linux completed
successfully. You can decide to remove this software from your system at any
time by invoking the following command:
"/usr/bin/vmware-uninstall-vSphere-CLI.pl".

This installer has successfully installed both vSphere CLI and the vSphere SDK
for Perl.
Enjoy,

--the VMware team"

Note: "Crypt::SSLeay" and "Compress::Zlib" are not needed for check_esx3 to work.
