/usr/local/nagios/etc not present after compiling ....

[Thompson, Jimi]

After much hair pulling, we have a winner!  Upgrading perl and
recompiling the plug-ins worked.  

 

Here's what to do  - 

 

Go to /usr/ports/lang/perl5.8 

Make && make test && make install

 

Type in "use.perl port" to upgrade the system perl

 

Type in "find /usr/local/lib/perl5/{site_perl/5.005,5.00503} -type f
-print0 | \ xargs -0 -n 1 pkg_which | sort -u > /tmp/perl-ports" 

 

This will create a list of any previously installed Perl modules

 

Go look in the file and remove anything that looks odd - ?'s and such

 

Then type this in "portupgrade -f `cat /tmp/perl-ports`"
 
Assuming you have portupgrade installed, this will also upgrade all your
other perl modules.
 
Now go to /usr/ports/nagois-plugins and install that.
 
This SHOULD solve your problem.  You should be able to run the install-
commands now.
 
HTH,
 
Jimi

Hi,

 

First post to this list after just compiling nagios ... I am having a
few problems but will tackle one at a time.

 

First thing ... After compiling Nagios successfully (well that's what it
tells me), this is what I get in /usr/local/nagios -

 

[root at richemontdev]> cd /usr/local/nagios/
[root at richemontdev]> ls -al
total 12
drwxr-xr-x   6 root     other        512 Jul  7 12:30 .
drwxr-xr-x  30 root     other       1024 Jul  7 09:43 ..
drwxrwxr-x   2 nagios   nagios       512 Jul  7 12:29 bin
drwxrwxr-x   2 nagios   nagios       512 Jul  7 12:29 sbin
drwxrwxr-x   8 nagios   nagios       512 Jul  7 12:29 share
drwxrwxr-x   3 nagios   nagios       512 Jul  7 12:30 var

Why is there no etc directory ?? In the documentation, it said I should
have the following -

 

Directory Structure And File Locations 

Change to the root of your Nagios installation directory with the
following command... 

cd /usr/local/nagios 

You should see five different subdirectories. A brief description of
what each directory contains is given in the table below. 

Sub-Directory

Contents

bin/

Nagios core program

etc/

Main <http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/configmain.html> , resource
<http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/configmain.html#resource_file> ,
object <http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/configobject.html> , and
CGI <http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/configcgi.html>
configuration files should be put here

sbin/

CGIs <http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/cgis.html> 

share/

HTML files (for web interface and online documentation)

var/

Empty directory for the log file
<http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/configmain.html#log_file> 

 

Why is this ??

Thanks in advance

Trev
