Nagios Support Forum

Hi there,
My Nagios Core is running on Solaris 10 64bit.
I have recently upgraded from version Core 3.3 to 4.1.1
After upgrade , cpu load on the system has increased tremendously (100% cpu is utilised).
And later I found this is a bug on 4.1.1

Decided to upgrade to recent version 4.2.
unfortunately I am not successful in starting Nagios after upgrade.
Below is the error that I get.

#/etc/init.d/nagios start
-n Starting nagios:
Bus Error - core dumped
CONFIG ERROR! Start aborted. Check your Nagios configuration.

Any help please?

Thanks,
Sainu Daniel

Are you able to verify your configuration? Please attempt to, and post the full output. Modify the paths as needed since they may be different in your environment.

We saw something similar on Solaris 11:

I'll see if our C dev can comment on either thread.

Hi,
Any update from Dev ?
I have upgraded to latest version 4.2.1 and it started working but having high cpu usage issue as mentioned in the thread

You could try recompiling Core with: If this doesn't help, try:

Tried both but didn't help.

After running with 'select', polling has been stopped (Service status not getting updated for past 1hr) and all client services shows previous time stamp.

New error started to appear in /var/adm/messages,

I'm going to try testing on a couple of different Solaris hosts. I'll report back as soon as I can.

Ok.Thanks.

I posted the issue on GitHub - https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/na ... issues/285 to make sure it is not going to "fall in the cracks". Thank you!
