Recurring downtime not working after 2012R2.4 update

[c.slagel]

We're having an issue with items in recurring downtime not going down when scheduled after updating to the newest version. I've restarted the server and everything to make sure it wasn't a weird glitch. It's causing issues as I'm now getting text message alerts in the middle of the night waking me up for false alarms. Please help!

What happens when you run the following script manually?

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosxi/cron/recurringdowntime.pl

Do you get any errors?

What is the output of the following command?

Code: Select all

tail -50 /var/log/httpd/error_log

Yes, here's the output:

Can you send us a copy of your:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosxi/cron/recurringdowntime.pl

I want to diff it and see if something went funky.

[c.slagel]

Sure thing, here you are.

recurringdowntime.pl

[lmiltchev]

Sorry for the late response. It doesn't seem the "recurringdowntime.pl" has been modified, so we will need to do some more digging into this.

Scott,

Is a hotfix going to be released? I was holding off on upgrading until I saw a resolution to this issue.

[slansing]

It sounds like it is going to be rolled into the current 2.4b update and that should be done today.

[c.slagel]

Awesome. Thanks guys.
