Lets set the permissions on that check manually. Please run the following to do that.

Code: Select all

chmod 755 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_services
chown nagios.nagios /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_services
Could you run the following and post is so we can see if there are any more permission issues on those files in that folder?

Code: Select all

ls -l /usr/local/nagios/libexec/

Is the scheduled backup working now? Can you remove the old (incomplete) backups and try scheduling a new backup?

So remove all the nagiosxi.* under /store/backups/nagiosxi/ and try again? I don't see any incomplete backups anymore and no the scheduled backup isn't running to my ssh server and this directory continues to grow.

Go to Admin->Scheduled Backups->SSH, click on both, the "Test Connection" and the "Test SCP Transfer" buttons and show us screenshots of the page after each click. Schedule a SSH backup a few minutes in the future, wait for 25-30 min., then post the "/usr/local/nagiosxi/var/components/scheduledbackups.log".

Edit the /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/config.inc.php file and add the following if it isn't already defined in it.

Code: Select all

$cfg['backup_timeout']=2400; 
Restart apache by running

Code: Select all

service httpd restart
Then test to see if the backups start to work.

I added that line, restarted httpd, and still the same results.

It looks like there a permission problem on the remote server. Can you login to that system and verify that the permissions are correct on the folder you are trying to copy the backups to?
