Ncpa plugins help

Post by kreeves »

I'm attempting to use this plug in: ​https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... me/details



But since we use ncpa, I need help forming the command for the service check​. It just always returns "unknown"

​using this as a starting point.

Hello @kreeves,

To use plugins with NCPA, the plugin should be in the plugins folder of your NCPA installation. On Linux/Mac, this will be the /usr/local/ncpa/plugins folder and on Windows, the C:\Program Files (x86)\Nagios\NCPA or C:\Program Files\Nagios\NCPA\plugins if you're using the NCPA 3 beta.

Can you give more information about the error you're encountering? The specific error message would greatly help in our ability to help you. Let us know if you need more help!
