You didn't answer my question:

Are you using Mod Gearman, Livestatus, etc.?

Can you post the nagios.cfg file?

Run a verification: Post the output.

We are thinking that we have to upgrade mod gearmon. Where and how are the next questions...

Can you confirm the permissions of the following file
Also can you verify disk space

We ended up updating ModGearman. That seems to have solved that issue.


Of course now some of my service checks (server uptime) aren't working.

Good times, good times.

Are those checks that are normally processed by gearman or something else like passive checks? Also just to confirm, verify now completes without any errors?
