Nagios Support Forum

Hi, can anyone help me with this hpeilo plugin installation? basically I made a nagios rpm using nagios-4.4.2.tar.gz to my CentOS 7 virtual machine, and then downloaded nagios-plugins-hpeilo-1.5.1-156.4.el7.x86_64.rpm. However, when I tried to yum the plugin, it said failed because could not find nagios packages.

Below are the information. Thanks.

~]# rpm -qa | grep nagios
nagios-4.4.2-2.el7.x86_64

~]# rpm -ivh nagios-plugins-hpeilo-1.5.1-156.4.el7.x86_64.rpm

Where are you getting the nagios-plugins-hpeilo RPM This is not distributed by Nagios Enterprises, so I am unfamiliar with the spec file and what it is requiring in the %pre section that is erroring.

Hi, thanks for the quick reply. I actually downloaded from the nagios site.

The exchange is a location for people to share plugins they have made.

You may want to try installing from source as it wouldn't have the dependencies the rpm had

Looks like the source is here
