Hi All,

 

Even I am also facing the same kind of issue. I am using Nagios 3.0.6
and Redhat 5 OS.

 

I am not getting archive logs in the notification area and it says
Error: Cannot open log file
'/usr/local/nagios/var/archives/nagios-04-10-2009-00.log' for reading!

 

Please help.

 

Surajit

Now my nagios is not running any check at all.  I get a lot of "looks
like it was orphaned" message and then nagios just sit there.  Can
someone help me with this.  I will add some entries from nagios.debug
and  nagios.log along with my nagios.cfg.  Thanks in advance.

i met almost the same issue.

after tweaking enable_embedded_perl=0, the load average was brought up
but latencies became lower.

        I am seeing a ton of orphaned error message for both services

GHZ memory.  I will paste my configuration file below.  I have the
machine sending ndo to a local database sitting on a 170 GB Hard drive.
nagios is obcessing on both host and services and sending data to a
machine with identical configuration.  I am doing failover using NSCA.
Please advise on this.
