Hello,
I'm following this guide:
https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=515#SUSE
but when I test nrpe i get
Code: Select all
/tmp/nrpe-nrpe-3.2.1 # /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1
-bash: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe: No such file or directory
I must have missed something since the folder /usr/local/nagios/libexec is empty.
same thing with the plugins
/tmp/nagios-plugins-release-2.2.1 # /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1 -c check_load
-bash: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe: No such file or directory
Code: Select all
:/usr/local/nagios/libexec # /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1
-bash: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe: No such file or directory
:/usr/local/nagios/libexec # /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1 -c check_load
-bash: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe: No such file or directory

You missed the section that follows "Installing The Nagios Plugins" in that doc that follows the "Service / Daemon Commands"

I followed it, the folder is no longer empty but
Code: Select all
:/usr/local/nagios/libexec # /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1
-bash: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe: No such file or directory
:/usr/local/nagios/libexec # /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1 -c check_load
-bash: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe: No such file or directory
persist

check_nrpe is not part of the nagios-plugins package
If you need that you will need to install NRPE on the server to get the plugin

One more command that may have been missing from that document was
This should install the plugin

ok
Code: Select all
make install-plugin
cd ./src/; make install-plugin
make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/nrpe-nrpe-3.2.1/src'
/usr/bin/install -c -m 755 -d /usr/local/nagios/bin
/usr/bin/install -c -m 755 ../uninstall /usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe-uninstall
/usr/bin/install -c -m 775 -o nagios -g nagios -d /usr/local/nagios/lib
/usr/bin/install -c -m 775 -o nagios -g nagios -d /usr/local/nagios/lib
/usr/bin/install -c -m 775 -o nagios -g nagios check_nrpe /usr/local/nagios/lib
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/nrpe-nrpe-3.2.1/src'
but I still can't run
Code: Select all
/tmp/nrpe-nrpe-3.2.1 # /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 127.0.0.1

Did it place it in the wrong directory?

Code: Select all
find / -name "check_nrpe"
find: File system loop detected; ‘/.snapshots/1/snapshot’ is part of the same file system loop as ‘/’.
/.snapshots/47/snapshot/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe
/tmp/nrpe-nrpe-3.2.1/src/check_nrpe
/usr/local/nagios/lib/check_nrpe
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe
find: ‘/run/user/1000/gvfs’:
the quick fix for me was this:
Code: Select all
zypper install nrpe monitoring-plugins-nrpe nrpe-doc
skipping the whole from source thing.
thank you for your correct answers.

That would work too...
Looking at your output it looks like it installed the plugin in /usr/local/nagios/lib/check_nrpe instead of /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe
