Nagios Support Forum

I am trying to upgrade my NagiosXI installation from 2.4 to 3.2. I followed the upgrade instructions exactly as they were documented. However, after the upgrade was run, my installation did not get upgraded and I am prompted to upgrade:

Your installation of Nagios XI 2011R2.4 is outdated and should be upgraded. The latest version of Nagios XI is 2011R3.2, which was released on 2012-06-27.

I have rebooted and tried the upgrade 3 times with no luck. I am running CentOS release 6.2. Below are the last lines of the upgrade:

make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/nagiosxi/subcomponents/nagioscore/nagios'
make install-basic

You can continue with installing Nagios as follows (type 'make'
without any arguments for a list of all possible options):

make install-init
- This installs the init script in /etc/rc.d/init.d

make install-commandmode
- This installs and configures permissions on the
directory for holding the external command file

make install-config
- This installs sample config files in /usr/local/nagios/etc

make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/nagiosxi/subcomponents/nagioscore/nagios'
Running configuration check...done.
Stopping nagios: done.
Starting nagios: done.
Saving old crontab to /tmp/nagios.crontab.orig.1...
no crontab for nagios

Go to the nagiosxi directory:
Edit both scripts, the "uninstall-crontab-nagios" and "uninstall-crontab-root" in a text editor by removing the "-e" from the first line and changing it from:
to
After this, run the ./upgrade again.

Hope this helps.

Yes! That worked. Thanks.

I am glad I could help!
