looks like you didn't add the user/password to the command.

What is the command you ran?

In our example earlier we showed

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_mysql -H x.x.x.x -u <username> -p <password> -d <dbname>

We're making progress now i'm just getting a few different errors;

Code: Select all

Host '82.16.34.92' is not allowed to connect to this MariaDB server 
Can't connect to MySQL server on '31.22.2.87' (111) 
Can't connect to MySQL server on '31.22.2.86' (113)
Access denied for user 'nagios'@'cpc82787-midd19-2-0-cust603.11-1.cable.virginm.net' (using password: NO) 
The Access denied is the cpanel server

I just want to check if mysql is running rather than a particular database

With this plugin you would still need to enter a username that has permissions to access a database from your host, even if it is to just check it is running.

Yes, but you should make it work form the command line first to make sure everything is working, then you can proceed to setup the command with passing args in on your service config
