failed to query performance counters

Post by pconstantin »

Hello,

I am using NSClient++ 0.3.7.494 -x64 on windows 2008 R2 SP1 and got a lot of Failed to query performance counters.

How can I solved this problem?

the message in nsclient.log is

2015-09-22 11:53:50: error:modules\CheckSystem\PDHCollector.cpp:208: Failed to query performance counters: \Processor(_total)\% Processor Time: PdhGetFormattedCounterValue failed: -2147481642: A counter with a negative denominator value was detected.

windows 2008 R2 is an english version.
changing event log buffer size in nsc.ini did not help.
counters.def file is version 1.02 release date 10.2.2002

this is not happenning on all w2k8 servers, only on serveurs that have same set of applications, but it should not happend.

thanks for your help

Your version of NSClient++ is too old.

Upgrade to 0.4.x
