If you remove the nrpe upgrade, the check_nrpe will be update?

This should have already been copied to the expected location from your previous upgrade run but you can verify by running

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -V
Which should return

Code: Select all

Not, it was not copied, it had the old one
-rwxrwxr-x 1 apache nagios 132392 Nov 19 2018 check_nrpe

I run the upgrade without the nrpe first, it finished
then i run the nrpe upgrade alone running the removed script

still failing to start but the check_nrpe is listed like updated now
rwxrwxr-x 1 nagios nagios 133439 Jun 10 11:22 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe


/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -V

No, i was pointing that if you run the nrpe upgrade alone, received the same message , nagiosxi is running ok

This is good to hear.

It is possible that the NRPE agent might have been installed on the local system which could be throwing this off.

Quick question, do you have a multible Nagios XI servers where you are performing NRPE checks against this server from another?

If not, there is no need to have NRPE running on here and you can ignore this error.

No, not checking between multiple servers, we can keep the daemon off
Thank you for all your help
