I believe the script is supposed to save your old configs to a different directory, remove old gearman packages, and install the new ones... I will have to check with our developers on that.

What is the exact command that you ran while trying to upgrade the worker?

Update: I heard back from one of our developers, and he said:

Yeah, there is nowhere in the script to stop current running services. I'll put it on my list and have that issued out early next week

on the third worker I am now getting

Seems like the site is down?


./ModGearmanInstall.sh --type=worker --upgrade

assets.nagios.com was running into issues over the past few hours, can you attempt to run it again? If not, can you post the full link you're trying to download?

Linode reports connectivity issues this afternoon:

I have installed gearmand and the workers. Seems like nagios won't start unless gearmand is running first.

The order in which they must start has apparently changed.

It went from:
1)nagios
2)gearmand
3)gearmand worker

to:
1)gearmand
2)nagios
3)gearmand worker

In that order.

?

Is this correct?

I just noticed this... Seems like I have to configure the broker line for gearman as I am unable to submit commands through the XI interface. Any idea what might be going on here?

Can you run the following commands and show the output?

The gearman server should be started before nagios so the nagios process can connect to the server.
