Nagios service will not start after reboot

[mlong]

That was an example for another service, use nagios instead as that is what you are trying to do here.

yeah.. I realize that now and feel a little dumb

If you are running 9.x or greater you should be able to do the following:

Code: Select all

update-rc.d dhcp3-server enable

Otherwise we will need to go abrist's rout, or install the chkconfig package which will automatically symlink and do this for you.

These are the results I got from this command:

update-rc.d: using dependency based boot sequencing
update-rc.d: error: cannot find a LSB script for dhcp3-server

now this, I find interesting
update-rc.d: using dependency based boot sequencing
update-rc.d: error: nagios Default-Start contains no runlevels, aborting.

What is the output of:

Code: Select all

find /etc/rc?.d/| grep nagios

What is the output of:

Code: Select all

find /etc/rc?.d/| grep nagios

Does the following command work? If not, what errors do you get?

Code: Select all

update-rc.d -f nagios defaults 99

EDIT:
You might also need:

Code: Select all

ln -s /etc/init.d/nagios /etc/rcS.d/S99nagios

That first command gives me a whole slew of errors

Okay, now the service is starting on reboot...
Not sure which of the steps fixed the issue, but this time when I ran ln -s /etc/init.d/nagios /etc/rcS.d/S99nagios and rebooted, the service started up.
