Errors after restore to new system

Post by bbraunsc »

I restored a backup of my production system to a newly installed CENTOS box and I can't get it to run.

The Monitoring Engine, Performance Grapher and Database Backend services won't start. And Under the Config file Permissions Check I get an error.
So I ran the below command to verify the installation and I'm getting an error on the contacttemplates.cfg

./nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg

You are missing your contacttemplates.cfg file. Was this part of your backup?
