Hello, i have trouble with services. If service is down i can get three emails notifications by one event (attached screen). I did not find duplicates of its services in my config files.
What it can be? May be i need a flap settings?

At a quick glance it seems you may have multiple processes running. What is the full output of ps -ef | grep nagios?

Also, please post your /usr/local/nagios/var/objects.cache for us to review.

Your configuration looks fine, but the ps suggests you had multiple processes running.

Code: Select all

nagios   22098     1  0 Oct06 ?        00:43:35 /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -d /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
nagios   23985 23932  0 Oct31 ?        00:01:15 /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -d /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
nagios   24048     1  0 Nov28 ?        00:00:13 /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -d /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
nagios   24065 24048  0 Nov28 ?        00:00:00 /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -d /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg

I would kill off all of the duplicates, and ensure just one is running. The worker processes are fine, as long as they spawn from the parent, but here it seems there are multiple running.

It sounds like this issue has been resolved. Is it okay if we lock this thread? Thanks for choosing the Nagios forums!
