Nagios Support Forum

Had a service alert for a cert expiration, clicked on it and added acknowledgement but it still sends email and is not showing the acknowledge in the section on the page:

Acknowledgements and Comments
No comments or acknowledgements.


I do see the statement in the audit log though...

Also if i go to the operations screen and click Hide Handled it is not hidden.

Thanks,
Brad

It could be that you have two nagios processes running. The following should take care of that.

What's the output of the following? Please note that you will need to remove the "#" before each command line for the commands to work.
# df -i
# df -h

It's possible you are out of space. If that's the case, please follow https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... M-Disk.pdf

Please run through https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... tabase.pdf and report any errors. If you stop at any point, please know at which point you stop.

If the repair script and other instructions in the document do not resolve the issue, please continue.

Regarding the instructions below, if you do not have killall, you can install it via the following command:
# yum install psmisc

If psmisc is not in your repos, then instead you can check to make sure nagios is not running with
# ps -aef | grep nagios

If that document does not resolve your issue, please run the following commands in order and report any errors. You ***must*** use mariadb instead of mysqld in the commands below, ***if*** you have mariadb.
# service nagios stop
# service ndo2db stop
# service mysqld stop
# service crond stop
# service httpd stop
# killall -9 nagios
# killall -9 ndo2db
# rm -rf /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd
# rm -rf /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock
# rm -f /usr/local/nagios/var/ndo.sock
# rm -f /usr/local/nagios/var/ndo2db.lock
# rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/reconfigure_nagios.lock
# for i in `ipcs -q | grep nagios |awk '{print $2}'`; do ipcrm -q $i; done
# service ndo2db start
# service nagios start
# service mysqld start
# service crond start
# service httpd start

If that does not resolve the issue, can you PM me your Profile? You can download it by going to Admin > System Config > System Profile and click the ***Download Profile*** button towards the top. If for whatever reason you *cannot* download the profile, please put the output of View System Info (5.3.4+, Show Profile if older) in the thread (that will at least get us some info). This will give us access to many of the logs we would otherwise ask for individually. If security is a concern, you can unzip the profile take out what you like, and then zip it up again. We may end up needing something you remove, but we can ask for that specifically.

After you PM the profile, please update this thread. Updating this thread is the only way for it to show back up on our dashboard.

less than 1% use all the way down and no mounts greater than 43% so not out of space or inodes...

took it out of SELINUX enforcing and got the profile, also noticed out of selinux enforcing the acknowledge works...

Does this product not work with SELinux?

Thanks,
Brad

BradZynda wrote: Does this product not work with SELinux?

Certainly some customers have set up SELinux contexts that work, but we will not help you set up that context.

Out of the box, as you have found, no, it will not work with SELinux set to enforcing.

yikes

so no selinux, no 2 factor or radius support, passwords in plain text files and no help to even make it secure.. and a little

BradZynda wrote:no 2 factor

This is slated for XI 5.5.

BradZynda wrote:no help to even make it secure

We have plenty of documentation on SSL and SSH (depending on the setting), and offer an offline installer. The developers have just made the decision they are going to leave SELinux contexts to the people that want them.
