Core 3.3.1 is missing var/spool/checkresults
Posted: Wed Sep 14, 2011 10:00 am
Hi all,
I have recently compiled and installed Nagios Core 3.3.1 on Ubuntu Server 10.04 64bit.
The install without any problems but when I try to start it or verify the configuration it says that it can't access a file listed in nagios.cfg
I checked the line reference and found that the file is /usr/local/nagios/var/spool/checkresults
I checked the directory and found that the var folder is missing. To make Nagios run I had to create the var/spool/checkresults folder structure and set the permissions as per an instance of Nagios v3.2.1 on Ubuntu Server 8.04 32bit
Nagios then ran OK. However I was building a second one and encountered exactly the same problem - Is this a bug in Core v3.3.1?
Thanks,
Jamie
