Code: Select all

rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/event_handler.lock

This should fix the issue. The issue occurs when the event_handler cron does not properly stop. This could happen during restart. I've attached a new cron file that should fix the problem. It will also be fixed in XI 5.6.1.

To implement the fix, copy and overwrite the event_handler.php file in the /usr/local/nagiosxi/cron folder.

I was following the step but no luck. Try to force immediately check no email alert send out. try restart server not help.

Here output of event_handler.lock
