The check_ping command in your service definition is *not* a reference to
the check_ping plugin, it's a reference to the check_ping check command
defined somewhere else in your config. Normally that command will call a
plugin (in this case, most likely check_ping) with some set of arguments,
which in most cases include the address of the host on which the service was
defined.

[Nagios-users] upgrade from 3.2.2 to 3.2.3 not working?
Hi All, Newbie... upgrading from a previous install of 3.2.2 to 3.2.3. Followed the steps outlined here: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/upgrading.html#nagios3x The Nagios home page still shows 3.2.2 as the version with an upgrade message. I didn't get any errors in compilation, etc. Anything else that I should be looking for?

Re: [Nagios-users] upgrade from 3.2.2 to 3.2.3 not working?
Sorry, I mean on my own installation home page. I had some permission issues yesterday so I changed some things around which is what I think the issue was with the upgrade b/c it was assuming that my directories were owned by the nagios user and group and they weren't. I have now changed the ownership back to nagios user and group and run make install again. Now when I load up my Nagios home page it shows the latest version as being installed: 3.2.3 but still displaying the box below that says that there's a new version available, 3.2.3. Is that OK? meaning, will that box be there regardless of my current version?

Ok... that's odd, I don't have any such cron job running. This is part of the Nagios home page (share/main.php). Maybe that's normal, meaning, its part of this particular version's html update (as its also present in the html/main.php file from the upgrade tar).

[Nagios-users] nagios.cmd permission issue
Hi, New to Nagios... Got everything pretty much running, except when I try to modify things using the web interface, I get this error: Error: Could not open command file '/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd' for update! The permissions on the external command file and/or directory may be incorrect. Read the FAQs on how to setup proper permissions. An error occurred while attempting to commit your command for processing. This is clearly a permission issue as when I manually change the permissions of the /rw/nagios.cmd to 777 for example, it works fine. When the service is restarted and the pipe is recreated though, the permissions are re-set. I am running the nginx web server, not apache. SELinux is disabled. The rw directory has 777 permissions and is owned by the nagios user and group. The Nginx server runs under a different user / group and this could be the issue. However, I tried to set up the rw directory with that user and group and still no luck.

Re: [Nagios-users] nagios.cmd permission issue
I followed the instructions in commandfile.html documentation to the letter, its still not working. Its clearly a permissions issue between the user that the web server is running as and the user that nagios is running is. I did create a nagcmd group where both users are a part of and set up the sticky bit, but no luck.

Re: [Nagios-users] nagios.cmd permission issue
Hi All, Turns out that the FCGI wrapper process was running under a different user than both the web server and nagios and although CGI scripts were running, that may have contributed to the problem. I also noticed that there were other nagios processes running at the same time that should have been previously killed but were not so that may also have been a contributing factor. I've now normalized all of the web processes with the same user: 1. Nginx 2. PHP 3. FCGIWrapper 4. Nagios service and the problem seems to be resolved. Thanks to everyone for their support, suggestions and help.
