Great. A server reboot will almost always solve this problem, but we understand that is not possible in some environments. Once the times have been fixed, you should not experience this problem again unless your server hardware is experiencing severe clock skew/drift.

Followed the PDF again, as well as the documentation in the post. Any other suggestions?

Just to make absolutely sure please post the output of the following:

Code: Select all

cat /etc/php.ini | grep timezone

date
You may also be able to remote the retention.dat file and restart nagios:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/var/retention.dat

What was the output of:

Code: Select all

date
To remove retention.dat and have nagios recreate it run the following:

Code: Select all

service ngaios stop
rm /usr/local/nagios/var/retention.dat
service nagios start
NOTE: Removing this file will force all of your checks to a pending state until they return a new check, this scheduling will be handled by nagios.
