Hi Team,
Email and Mobile notifications are not working after hard resetting NagiosXI server. I did check Notification settings and options and it seems like looking good to me.
Please assist.

Hello
@Pselvin,
Assuming notifications are enabled and set correctly, please tail the log file then send a test message and post the output for us to review. You can try testing both mail methods ( sendmail or smtp). Also, it's not uncommon for the username and password for smtp to be incorrect, so please make sure those are valid.
Code: Select all
tail -F /var/log/maillog /usr/local/nagiosxi/tmp/phpmailer.log

Hi
@Pselvin,
It looks like it phpmailer is not able to authenticate with the smtp server. Are you sure you have the correct settings? Can you post a full screen shot of Admin > Manage Email Settings.
Thanks.

We attached the mail settings screen shot and also the connectivity between mail server and nagios. Connectivity looks good between the servers.

I found this event in the log.
Code: Select all
SQL: SQL Error [nagiosxi] :</b> Table './nagiosxi/xi_events' is marked as crashed and should be repaired.
I ran the restore script, which fixed the Notification issue. Notifications are coming through just fine. Appreciate your help.
