Backup component

[morabanc]

I'm testing the backup component, when I try to create a backup nothing happens, this error is appearing in error_log from apache:

PHP Warning: filesize(): stat failed for Error backing up MySQL database 'nagios' - check the password in this script! in /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/scheduledbackups/scheduledbackups.inc.php on line 516

I can't check if the password is correct or not, because php file is protected with source guardian.

If I launch the backup script backup_xi.sh it works fine.

Thanks.

The auth info ultimately comes from /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/config.inc.php, but it comes there for backup_xi.sh also I'm pretty sure.

Did you change your auth parameters for either of the databases?

No, we are using default password

Can you run the following command and show the output?

Code: Select all

grep pwd /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/config.inc.php

Hello,

Here the output:

grep pwd /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/config.inc.php
"pwd" => 'n@gweb',
"pwd" => 'n@gweb',
"pwd" => 'n@gweb',

If I launch the backup script backup_xi.sh it works fine.

This is the interesting part to me. What version of XI are you running?

Check users and groups:

Code: Select all

grep nag /etc/passwd
grep nag /etc/group

Check sudoers:

Code: Select all

cat /etc/sudoers

Hi,

I solved it! It was a permissions problem, realated with the own of /store/backups/nagiosxi/ directory, the owner should be nagios, and it was configured with root, after to change this it has worked.

Thanks for your suppport.
