[Nagios-users] Premature end of script headers
Hello, I installed nagios 1.3 on one of our RHEL3 boxes. Running ../bin/nagios -v nagios.cfg from the /etc directory gave no errors. However the web interface doesnt seem to allow the cgi's to execute. I can get to http://serverIP/nagios/ The index page and documentation loads fine but i get the following errors when trying to load ANY of the cgi's: Premature end of script headers: /usr/local/nagios/sbin/status.cgi Premature end of script headers: /usr/local/nagios/sbin/extinfo.cgi Premature end of script headers: /usr/local/nagios/sbin/tac.cgi Can someone help?

On 1/4/06, Fernando Lima [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: To list. Is it a good idea to install Nagios through RPM??? It will configure the nagios user, nagios group (with nobody and nagios), etc? Yes, the nagios rpm will create the nagios user, and set up the apache environment for you. You have to add users to the htpasswd setup, or change the auth to suit your environment. I'm of the belief that you should install the software in a manner consistent with your system. If you're a debian user, install the nagios deb files, if you use an rpm based system, install nagios via rpm. This keeps a clean, consistent system, and allows you to track what package owns what files. It's not so much a nagios issue, as a system administration issue. This way when you need to do a software audit of the system to see what's on it, one command will work, rather than doing rpm -qa AND digging through /usr/local/ or other source build/install locations.

It seems like you managed to screw your nagios installation. If I had to guess: you installed the nagios rpm (obviously without knowing you did) and then tried to do some manual installing - destroying vital information, needed by the rpm for a successful uninstall for example. Looks like you have some major problems here, it's kinda hard to remotely solve your problem without access to the machine. There are a myriad of places where you would need to check where you broke the installation. regards sash -- Sascha Runschke Netzwerk Administration IT-Services ABIT AG Robert-Bosch-Str. 1 40668 Meerbusch Tel.:+49 (0) 2150.9153.226 Mobil:+49 (0) 173.5419665 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.abit.net http://www.abit-epos.net - Sicherheitshinweis zur E-Mail Kommunikation / Security note regarding email communication: http://www.abit.net/sicherheitshinweis.html --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

RE: [Nagios-users] Send only X Notifications on failure
Additionally, you should be able to add the information to the template and use
templates as described in the manual. This would make the changes you make
global.
Alternatively, you should be able to vi the file and :%s/last_notification
60/last_notification 1/ to make the change globally. This would work if the
configurations were copied to make the next template. The task is not
difficult to manage even with several hundreds of services.

Otherwise my escalation config will get pretty big.
Thanks, Mario
you can use notification_interval 0 in your service template, like it
is described in the fine manuals:
snip
notification_interval: This directive is used to define the number of
time units to wait before re-notifying a contact that this service is
still in a non-OK state. Unless you've changed the interval_length
directive from the default value of 60, this number will mean minutes.
If you set this value to 0, Nagios will not re-notify contacts about
problems for this service - only one problem notification will be sent out.

[Nagios-users] Fix when not broken?
I have Nagios version 2.0b3 and it is running pretty good. Is there any advantage to running/upgrading to version 2.0rc1? Do the upgrade Nagios programs have anything different than the version I am using? Is the upgrade path: 1) kill Nagios and reinstall the new version? 2) Upgrade program made to upgrade works well?

[Nagios-users] Slow Starting Of Nagios 2.0b6
Hi Everyone,I am wondering if anyone knows how I may get Nagios to start faster and check the configs faster. I have a little over 9000 hosts and about 19500 services. It is taking about 25 minutes to start. I have/am setting up distributed checks on the main hosts and have all of the other hosts at these sites as dependents on the main hosts. I have not added all of the services that I am trying to check, so this time will only grow. Plus as time goes by I will be adding more hosts and all the services they need to be monitored for. ThanksJoseph
RE: [Nagios-users] softstates and retry check intervals
That should work, here is a sample from my config:
define service {
name --template Customer Service
max_check_attempts 5
normal_check_interval 10
retry_check_interval 3
active_checks_enabled 1
check_period 24x7
process_perf_data 1
retain_status_information 1
retain_nonstatus_information 1
notification_interval 30
notification_period ShopHours
notifications_enabled 1
register 0
notification_options u,c,r
servicegroups Customer Services
contact_groups FieldOpsSupport,TechOpsSupport
}

Hello Danny,
Thxs for the immeidate reply. actualy i need to do this
In order to prevent false alarms, Nagios allows you to define how many
times a service or host check will be retried before the service or host
is
considered to have a real problem.
but my one process went to NRPE time out..it gives critical alert..but
its a
false alarm. if nagios can check that service 3 times..if all three
times
fails..it should alert...
this is my servises.cfg
define service{
use generic-service ; Name of
service template to use
host_name Linux-PBX
service_description PBX-Asterisk process
is_volatile 0
check_period24x7
max_check_attempts 3
normal_check_interval 1
retry_check_interval1
contact_groups linux-admins
notification_interval 240
notification_period 24x7
notification_optionsw,u,c,r
check_command check_snmp_process!asterisk
}
thxs in advance

Notifications are only sent out for HARD States. The retry check
interval is how quickly should I start checking as soon as this service
is in an non-okay status. The maximum check attempts is how many
consecutive checks must be the same before it is considered a hard
state, up until then it was a soft state.
This can probably explain it better:

Install net-snmp on the machines you wanna monitor and use the functionality it provides for diskchecks. It writes the result to a table in snmp and returns the result when it's being polled from the nagios-server.
