Hello!
Im using nagios XI VMware edition. After upgrading to 5.5.6 I cannot add comments or add|remove acknowledgement. The window just disappears and nothing happens.
I tried to do it in /nagios and got an error:

Sorry, but you are not authorized to commit the specified command.
Read the section of the documentation that deals with authentication and authorization in the CGIs for more information.

Return from whence you came

This shows something has written to the nagios.cmd file when nagios was stopped and overwrote the permissions

Code: Select all

# ll /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/
total 0
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root   nagcmd 0 Nov 12 13:22 nagios.cmd
srw-rw---- 1 nagios nagcmd 0 Nov 12 13:24 nagios.qh

Lets run the following

Code: Select all

service nagios stop
killall -9 nagios
rm -f /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd
service nagios start

Code: Select all

# ll /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/
total 0
prw-rw---- 1 nagios nagcmd 0 Nov 13 03:01 nagios.cmd
srw-rw---- 1 nagios nagcmd 0 Nov 12 17:47 nagios.qh
#

Still doesnt work.
