check_nrpe is missing after NRPE installation in SLES 10

Post by kingston »

Hi

I have configured one of my RHEL 5.3 x86_64 bit server as a Nagios monitoring host and the nagios core version installed is 3.5.0.
My environment has OEL 5.3, RHEL 5.3/6, SLES 10 and HPUX 11i V3 servers.

I have installed Nagios Plugins 1.4.16 and NRPE 2.14 on one of my SLES 10 server and found check_nrpe binary is missing under /usr/local/nagios/libexec.
Please let me know if i am trying with incompatible version of Nagios plugins and NRPE for SLES 10.

P.S: The same nagios-plugins and nrpe tar balls are working fine for OEL/RHEL operating systems. (HP UX is yet to be tested)

Thanks in Advance

What method did you use to install nrpe? (source/repo/other?)

I have downloaded the nrpe-2.14 tar ball from Nagios site and compiled it from the same.

If you recompile plugins does check_nrpe return? Is it possible it was somehow moved to a different directory?

Hi All

The problem resolved after i degrade the NRPE version from 2.14 to 2.13. Servers are being monitored well with the Monitoring host installed with NRPE 2.14

Thanks all.
