error web page Nagios

[zik]

Good Day ,

After success to start httpd service I enter to web page nagios he give me this message :

Code: Select all

Error: Could not read object configuration data!

Here are some things you should check in order to resolve this error:

    Verify configuration options using the -v command-line option to check for errors.
    Check the Nagios log file for messages relating to startup or status data errors. 

When I did :nagios -v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg

Code: Select all

Total Warnings: 61
Total Errors:   0

Things look okay - No serious problems were detected during the pre-flight check

in loge nagios I find this :

Code: Select all

[1361371574] Error: Unable to create temp file for writing status data!

If you have an idea how I can fix it I will be thankful .

Many Thanks

All The Best

Sound like a permission error, check:

Code: Select all

ls -la /usr/local/nagios

It should be nagios:nagios. If not, try:

Code: Select all

chown nagios:nagios /usr/local/nagios

[zik]

excuse me but give me this message :

Code: Select all

ls: can not access / usr / local / nagios: No such file or such folder

when I can find ?

Many Thanks

Did you happen to run ls "/ usr / local / nagios"? It seems that all of those have spaces in-between which should not be the case.

[zik]

no without space and give this message .

afther searching in nagios.cfg I found that is the path for nagios.tmp

Code: Select all

temp_file=/var/log/nagios/nagios.tmp

but when I go there I didn't find the file nagios.tmp

so I must create the file ?

Can you please help me

Many Thanks
