Nagios Support Forum

Hi,

I noticed 2 bugs with nagios (cvs snapshot 2.0a1 downloaded today 2004.10=
.01 08am GMT+1):

1st bug :
---------
if perfdata files are not defined in nagios.cfg, nagios will crash (SIGSE=
GV).
Enable perfdata, but disable the following 2 lines and it will crash

host_perfdata_file=3D/opt/nagios/var/host-perfdata
service_perfdata_file=3D/opt/nagios/var/service-perfdata

2nd bug :
---------
Now, I consider that those files are defined.
If I start nagios with nothing in /opt/nagios/var (except archive/ and rw=
/), nagios will
run, but nagios -d won't. Workaround : touch service-perfdata; touch host=
-perfdata

When the files are defined and created, everything is working well. Thank=
s Ethan and all


$ grep perf nagios.cfg |egrep -v "^#"
perfdata_timeout=3D5
process_performance_data=3D0
host_perfdata_file=3D/opt/nagios/var/host-perfdata
service_perfdata_file=3D/opt/nagios/var/service-perfdata

If you need more info to reproduce the bug, please ask.
I don't know nagios enough yet to provide a patch. One day maybe ?

Yves
