Leonardo,

You should verify two things:
- If the file hostgroup.cfg exists, and if exists, verify if there are valid configuration, i.e. a hostgroup defined with all hosts listed in it.
- If you don´t wanna hostgroups, I believe you can remove it from the main file, nagios.cfg. In the begging of nagios.cfg there is a reference to hostgroup.cfg. I believe you can remove it, and nagios will no longer search for the hostgroup file.

Check this and please let us know.

Hi everyone,

I searched the list for this error, and find some solutions, but I think none of them applies to me.
I´m using Nagios 1.06b and i´m getting this error...
I´m sending my cfg files and my pre-flight check, so you can take a look and tell me if there is anything wrong.
Thanks in advance,

Error: Hostgroup has no members (config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/hostgroups.cfg', line 21)

     Check your configuration file(s) to ensure that they contain valid
     directives and data defintions.  If you are upgrading from a previous
     version of Nagios, you should be aware that some variables/definitions
     may have been removed or modified in this version.  Make sure to read
     the HTML documentation on the main and host config files, as well as the
     'Whats New' section to find out what has changed.
