installation issue on Debian Wheezy

[abrist]

Please file a bug on http://tracker.nagios.org. It looks like the init script is not currently working for ubuntu/debian systems.

The init script (/etc/init.d/nagios) have to be well modified.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install daemon
sudo sed -i 's/^\.\ \/etc\/rc.d\/init.d\/functions$/\.\ \/lib\/lsb\/init-functions/g' /etc/init.d/nagios
sudo sed -i 's/status\ /status_of_proc\ /g' /etc/init.d/nagios
sudo sed -i 's/daemon\ --user=\$user\ \$exec\ -ud\ \$config/daemon\ --user=\$user\ --\ \$exec\ -d\ \$config/g' /etc/init.d/nagios
sudo sed -i 's/\/var\/lock\/subsys\/\$prog/\/var\/lock\/\$prog/g' /etc/init.d/nagios
sudo sed -i 's/\/sbin\/service\ /\/usr\/sbin\/service\ /g' /etc/init.d/nagios
sudo sed -i 's/runuser/su/g' /etc/init.d/nagios
sudo service nagios start

I also removed the '-d 10' option applied on killproc in the stop sequence (around line 94) to avoid error message on 'service nagios stop' call.

$Stopping nagios: Illegal option -d
/sbin/start-stop-daemon: signal value must be numeric or name of signal (KILL, INT, ...)
Try '/sbin/start-stop-daemon --help' for more information.

Thanks Nicolargo on stackoverflow !
