MySQL database is on the second server. What do I do that update was successful?

Are you behind a proxy?

No, I do not have a proxy. if you try to connect to the MySQL server, everything is OK. I noticed that after 1.8 update changes settings in the admin to local MySQL.

Ok, so this is going to be a little bit of a workaround, but you should only need to do this once.

Open the /tmp/nagiosxi/subcomponents/ndoutils/post-upgrade script in a text-editor.
Update line 15 with the password, and hostname that match your environment.
Re-Run the upgrade script.

Ok, thanks it helped.

Good deal!
