Nagios Support Forum

I am running ubuntu and I just installed Nagios.
Compiled it from the source, followed the instructions but it seems that the plugins are not getting installed so when I log in (localhost/nagios) it just says 127 error, plugins may not be installed...etc

I checked the libexec directory and it's empty no matter how many times i compile/make/make install the plugins.

Any ideas?

I am running ubuntu and it seems that the plugins are not installing no matter how many times I compile via make/make install.

When I login via locahost/nagios it gives me that 127 plugin may not be installed.

I noticed the libexec where the plugins should be listed is empty too.

Any ideas?

Are you sure that you did not install core from the nagios3 package that Ubuntu hosts, also, where did you get the plugins package? Have you followed our official installing from source guide?:

I got the plugins from Nagios' site:

Are you sure that you did not install core from the nagios3 package that Ubuntu hosts.

You mean by doing "apt-get install nagios3"?
No i did not, I'm installing from the source.

I fixed it.
The issue was openssl.
Installed, recompiled, reloaded, restarted, working.

Thanks for the help though
