Nagios Support Forum

I am attempting to install mod_gearman on my Nagios XI server running 2014R2.3
After the install I modified the nagios.cfg file with the new broker module "broker_module=/usr/lib64/mod_gearman/mod_gearman.o config=/etc/mod_gearman/mod_gearman_neb.conf
"
Nagios fails to start. If I comment out the new broker line nagios will start.

The Nagios.cfg log file shows
[1421418856] Nagios 4.0.8 starting... (PID=32318)

I am using the VMWare image from Nagios XI R2.0. Its running CentOS version 6.6, Nagios XI has been updated three times using the upgrade scripts
I have installed the mod_gearman plug-in using the "Integrating Mod-Gearman with Nagios XI" pdf
using http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/mod_ ... x86_64.rpm
I will attach both mod_gearman_neb.conf and mod_gearmand_worker.conf along with the nagios.cfg file

Did you have gearmand started before restarting nagios?

Yes, I started gearmand then nagios.

Could you issue the following and post the results:

Run the following commands and show us the output:

[root@TLV-NG tmp]# /usr/bin/check_gearman -V
check_gearman: version 1.5.0b1 running on libgearman 1.1.8
