nrdp and timing out

[jssingh]

Can nrdp cause service timeout errors? I'm testing out nrdp and this is the XML I'm sending:

Code: Select all

<?xml version='1.0'?> 
<checkresults>
	<checkresult type='host'>
		<hostname>alex</hostname>
		<state>0</state>
		<output>Everything looks okay!</output>
	</checkresult>
	<checkresult type='service' checktype="1">
		<hostname>alex</hostname>
		<servicename>uptime</servicename>
		<state>0</state>
		<output>okey dokey|time=4</output>
	</checkresult>
</checkresults>

and then I don't see those results show up in nagios ... so I looked in the logs and this is the what it says:

[1394735470] PASSIVE HOST CHECK: alex;0;Everything looks okay!\n
[1394735470] Warning: Check of service 'uptime' on host 'alex' timed out after 0.000s!
[1394735470] PASSIVE SERVICE CHECK: alex;uptime;3;(Service check timed out after 0.00 seconds)
[1394735470] SERVICE ALERT: alex;uptime;UNKNOWN;HARD;1;(Service check timed out after 0.00 seconds)

It seems to happen consistently. I'm guessing that there is a variable in the config that I have set incorrectly. Any ideas?

thanks!

I assume you are running Core 4... This bug has been fixed:

http://sourceforge.net/p/nagios/nagiosc ... 1f1d5fd9c/

Thanks ... I upgraded nagios and the timeout error stopped. But now when I try to use nrdp nothing happens. I don't see anything in the logs and there is no indication in nagios that any information was sent. I'm not sure how to even start to debug this. Any ideas?

[lmiltchev]

Do you see anything in the system log?

Code: Select all

tail /var/log/messages

[jssingh]

yes ... and it was not at all what I was expecting to see. =)

Code: Select all

I double checked the config file and didn't see anywhere to specify the timezone.

That's in the PHP config file, /etc/php.ini on my system. You want to look for the date.timezone entry, and there will be a URL above it which will give you specifics on what timezones you can use. I believe you will need to restart apache after changing it.

[jssingh]

Thanks ... that fixed the timezone issue. But I'm back to seeing nothing. This is the only thing I saw in /var/log/messages:

Code: Select all

I don't see any reference in var/nagios.log.

[tmcdonald]

Anything in the httpd logs?

tail /var/log/httpd/error_log
tail /var/log/httpd/access_log

[jssingh]

nothing in error_log

just this in access_log:

lets take a look in /usr/local/nrdp/server/config.inc.php at the following value

Code: Select all

$cfg["check_results_dir"]

What is it set to? Are there files in the directory?

Code: Select all

ls -la /usr/local/nagios/var/spool/perfdata

does the path match the check_result_path in your nagios.cfg?
