Nagios Support Forum

Hi.

On my Core installation I use check_jmx4perl plugin.
I'm trying to set up this on my Nagios XI server, and I'm stuck.

I have installed the plugin via the web gui and created the check and service check.

The result from the service check in Nagios is:
(No output on stdout) stderr: Can't locate Nagios/Plugin/Functions.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_jmx4perl line 12.

And when I run the command via shell:
Can't locate Nagios/Plugin/Functions.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_jmx4perl line 12.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_jmx4perl line 12.

I have installed perl and cpan.
I have tried to google it and it looks like I miss the Nagios/Plugin/Functions.pm in CPAN ? Is this correct ?
How can I setup this / fix this issue ?

Server is RHEL7 and NagiosXI is 5.2.9
check_jmx4perl is 1.05-1

When I installed the plugin on XI I just copied check_jmx4perl from my Core installation (Other Server)
If possible, please also guide me to install the newest version downloaded from https://jolokia.org/

Custom plugins aren't supported so your best recourse would be to inquire with the developer(s) of it to find and install the needed dependencies.

We do have some JMX documentation here:

Does that help?

Thank you.
Yes that helped me in the correct directions.
After searching for all the different modules in CPAN as you posted.
I found that they where available via Redhat repo, can be a bit tricky to find.

You can search with the following command for the modules:
yum search perl |grep -B 1 "module" (without " " )

These modules did the trick for me:
yum install perl-Monitoring-Plugin.noarch
yum install perl-Module-Find.noarch
yum install perl-Sys-SigAction.noarch

I hope this helps other's with similar issues with perl.
