Nagios Support Forum

Posted: **Wed Aug 28, 2019 11:52 am**

We have successfully offloaded Mysql to a remote server according to the documents provided by NAGIOS.
Only issue we are seeing is the Data Maintenance Status button shows RED.
Is there a way to get this to change to GREEN ?

Thanks

took a look in /etc/cron.d/nagiosxi and see that dbmaint.php should run every 5 minutes.
Noticed there where no dbmaint.log in /usr/local/nagiosxi/var.
Running php -q /usr/local/nagiosxi/cron/dbmaint.php from command line runs successfully and the red button went away
running the same command and outputting logs to /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/dbmaint.log worked succesfully.
After i did this on the command line i changed ownership to nagios:users and permissions to 644.
With that i now see the logs is updated automatically every 5 minutes

Any reason Nagios didnt do this automatically?

What OS and XI version?

Anything logged in /var/log/cron or /var/log/secure when the cron tried to run before the log was put in place?

Does the nagios user ahve write permissions on the /usr/local/nagiosxi/ directory ?

we are running nagios xi 5.5.9 with RHEL 6.9
The logs show the same entries for the day before and after we created the logs
the permissions of the /usr/local/nagiosxi directory are 755 with owner root and group nagios

Run these:

Code: Select all

chmod 0644 /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/dbmaint.log
chown nagios.nagios /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/dbmaint.log

Please post (or PM) the FULL output of these commands (as root):

Code: Select all

chage -l nagios
chage -l apache
grep "User \|Group " /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
tail -n100 /var/log/cron
cat /etc/cron.d/nagiosxi
grep nag /etc/group
ls -lh /usr/local/nagiosxi/var
cat /etc/sudoers*
su - nagios
/usr/bin/php /usr/local/nagiosxi/cron/dbmaint.php # NOTICE NO -q

Thank you!

Error from running:

PHP Warning: unlink(/usr/local/nagiosxi/var/dbamint.lock): No such file or directory in /usr/local/nagiosxi/cron/dbmail.php on line 295
Repair Complete: FAILED TO REMOVE LOCK FILE

Posted: **Wed Sep 04, 2019 3:30 pm**

The lock file looks like it may not be getting created. What's the output of:

Code: Select all

ll -a /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/

?

We can also add some code to the dbmaint.php file to check if the file is getting created. Change the init_dbmaint() function(starts on line 29) to look like:

Code: Select all

function init_dbmaint()
{
    global $dbmaint_lockfile;

    // Check lock file
    if (@file_exists($dbmaint_lockfile)) {
        $ft = filemtime($dbmaint_lockfile);
        $now = time();
        if (($now - $ft) > 1800) {
            echo "LOCKFILE '".$dbmaint_lockfile."' IS OLD - REMOVING\n";
            unlink($dbmaint_lockfile);
        } else {
            echo "LOCKFILE '".$dbmaint_lockfile."' EXISTS - EXITING!\n";
            exit();
        }
    }

    // Create lock file
    echo "---CREATING: $dbmaint_lockfile\n";
    file_put_contents($dbmaint_lockfile, "");
        if(file_exists($dbmaint_lockfile)){
                echo "----Exists\n";}
        else{ echo "---- Does not exist\n";}
    // Make database connections
    $dbok = db_connect_all();
    if ($dbok == false) {
        echo "ERROR CONNECTING TO DATABASES!\n";
        exit();
    }

    return;
}

and run the script again:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/php /usr/local/nagiosxi/cron/dbmaint.php
