check_mailq is not executable by (uid 1000:gid(1000 1000 100

OS Agent: Oracle Linux Server release 8.5
CLI test on mailserver

Code: Select all

# sudo -u nagios /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mailq -w 2000 -c 3000
ERROR:  is not executable by (uid 1000:gid(1000 1000 1001)) and sudo is not set in utils.pm

I also had put "nagios ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mailq" in /etc/sudoers

Where I should check next?

UPDATE: I use this plugin instead https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... ue/details and now able to check mailq from nagios

I'm having the same issue on RHEL 8.x...
That plugin is a perl script and it works ok as root, but not nagios. My guess is that the script is running something like mailq and that needs sudo defined as well.
