Nagios Support Forum

Hi everyone!

I'm new to Linux and new to Nagios.

I followed the guide - http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/ ... buntu.html to the letting. When i load up the web interface after installation I have in the hosts tab my host showing as down! The status information displays - (Return code of 127 is out of bounds - plugin may be missing).

I think I've installed the plugin correctly and I've got back and tried installing the plugin again but I still get the same issue.

I've also restarted the server.

My installation is the latest edition on uBuntu server 12.10

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

Andy

Can you check permissions on your plugins folder:

ls -l /etc/nagios-plugins/config


I believe this is where the plugins are installed to with the old documentation, we have a new form of installing from source on Ubuntu which makes all the paths the same across the board so it is easier to follow documentation, and for support to assist:

Which plugin are you trying to setup?
Is it a localhost check or a remote host?
Could you post the config file for the service and host you are having a problem with?
If it is an nrpe plugin, could you post your nrpe.cfg for the checked host?
