Job for nagios.service failed. See 'systemctl1 status nagios.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.

When I type

Code: Select all

systemctl status nagios.service

. This bring me:

Just to clarify - you posted this in the Nagios Log Server forum, is this rather for Nagios Core?

Please run /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
