Is this an error you see in XI, or at the command line? Can you give us a screenshot of the error?

Okay, so it may just be an extra ' floating around. Can you post the command for this check?

By chance does the actual authpasswd contain a backtick `

It is really weird because the error looks like the command is erroring on a shell script but the command you showed is a compiled script, are you 100% sure that the command you showed is what this service is using?

Can you run the following commands from the command line and show the output?

Code: Select all

cat /etc/*release
uname -a
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp -p 161 -o 'enterprises.12356.101.4.1.8.0' -P 3 --seclevel=authNoPriv --secname='snmp-name' --authproto=SHA --authpasswd='password' -m SNMPv2-SMI -w 50000 -c 750000 -v
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp -h | head
Is this the only SNMP v3 check that doesn't work for you or none of them do? Have you copied (cloned) Nagios plugins from another server to this one by chance? Is this a source install of Nagios XI or you are using one of our pre-build images?
