Nagios- frequently not displaying HOSTS on GUI

Post by svissa »

Hi ,

Nagios is behaving weirdly. config is fine /nagios -v is giving 0 warnings and 0 errors.

But on Nagios UI. I have added 3 servers to hosts. Nagios UI is showing either one server or 3 servers. It is continously missing showing all servers all times.

Scenario:

Click on Hosts on Left Side page.
1. click - 3 servers
2. click for 4 / 5 times -- showing 3 server
3. Click for 5th or 6th time -- shows only one server
4. next 4/5 click shows only one server
5. 9th or 10th click shows all 3 servers.


whats wrong with the config ?

any help is appreciated.

You might have multiple instances of Nagios running. Stop the nagios daemon, and then just to be safe, run:

Code: Select all

killall -9 nagios
Then start the nagios process again. If you have multiple instance, they'll both overwrite each other's status information.

For that you've have to modify the source of the cgi's, and then recompile them.
