Hello,
I am a problem in "Current Event Log" of Nagios Core:
Error: Unable to rename file '/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log' to '/usr/local/nagios/var/archives/nagios-03-05-2012-14.log': Permission denied
and sometimes, also:
Error: Unable to rename file '/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.debug' to '/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.debug.old': No such file or directory
Even if
-rw-rw-rw- 1 nagios nagios 3590646 Mar 5 14:27 /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log
drw-rw-rw- 2 nagios nagios 49152 Jan 10 13:00 /usr/local/nagios/var/archives
and
-rw-rw-r-- 1 nagios nagios 472 Mar 5 14:45 /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.debug
Help me please.

You need executable permissions on your directory. Try this:
Code: Select all
# chmod ug+x /usr/local/nagios/var/archives

I am having a similar issue. The following error is showing in nagios.log:
Error: Unable to rename file '/var/log/nagios/nagios.debug' to '/var/log/nagios/nagios.debug.old': No such file or directory
The permissions on the 2 debug files are:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 nagios nagios 2309 Sep 8 23:39 nagios.debug
-rw-rw-r-- 1 nagios nagios 1000050 Sep 8 23:39 nagios.debug.old
I am running running nagios v3.5.1-1 on RHEL 6.7.
