RRDTool exits with errors -> ERROR: can't make a graph

[Navdeep Sidhu]

Hi Mathew

Thanks for your response. I have also deleted the existing RRD files so
that fresh data can be captured through check commands but error is
still the same.

However while running check commands manually, I'm getting required
output but not getting the content in graph.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Navdeep Sidhu

I recently ran into a similar testing Nagios/NagVis/PnP4Nagios.

To throw it out there... you are using an older version of PNP as
they're beyond 0.6 now.

I was trying to add a new service and testing.  I had been tweaking the
check's command line options to find the write output I wanted.  Once
the check worked how I wanted, I noticed I was getting an error on the
graph.  Since this was a new check, I deleted the existing RRD files
that had been created and let new ones get created.  That corrected the
issue.  I assume the RRD file was initially created with incorrect
parameters as I was changing the check during my initial testing.

May or may not be related... When testing new plugins and scripts, make
sure you're testing them as the "nagios" user the scripts will be
running as when integrated w/ Nagios.

I documented what I did for a previous employer awhile back here:
http://www.techadre.com/content/nagios-event-handler-restarting-service

Perhaps something in there may be useful.

I have the event handler defined with 3 macros: $HOSTSTATE$
$HOSTSTATETYPE$ $HOSTADDRESS$ all passed to a wrapper shell script that
takes each macro as $1, $2, and $3.  In the >wrapper script I added some
echo statements as part of my troubleshooting to figure out why my
script wasn't working.  If I run the script manually and pass the
arguments as I expect, the script runs fine.  When Nagios executes it,
as verified in the log, >nothing is happening and it is because the
first 2 arguments are not being passed to the script.  Interestingly,
the third one is passed to the script.

Hi

I think I have a corrupt windows.cfg   When I enable the windows.cfg in
nagios.cfg Nagios will kick back an error when I try to restart it.

Any suggestions or is there a clean windows.cfg I could try?

 

Thanks

What is the error you're getting?  What happens when you tell nagios to 
validate the config?

   nagios -v /path/to/nagios.cfg

The file windows.cfg is a conventional name to hint there might be 
windows based computers in there.  However that's for you, not Nagios. 
Nagios reads them all, and processes them afterwards.  There is likely 
an error, maybe a missing reference, so full details on the error is 
important.

With cURL, I can successfully log into the website I ultimately want
have Nagios test by passing --cookies.

Something like this: curl --cookie
"user=4reqrerqwr;userlogin=123adsfjlk324"
http://mysite.com/home/index.aspx -v | grep Welcome

I know it is successful because, 1, I can visually see the rendered
code and 2, the grep search for Welcome would only be seen if the
authentication was successful.

I am trying to mimic this in Nagios with check_http like so:

./check_http -H mysite.com -u http://mysite.com/home/index.aspx -f
follow -s Welcome -k 'Cookie: user=4reqrerqwr;userlogin=123adsfjlk324'
-v

One big difference I see is that in cURL the cookie is set on 1 line
but the verbose response from check_http shows the cookie on two
lines.

Cookie: user=4reqrerqwr;userlogin=123adsfjlk324 vs

Cookie: user=4reqrerqwr
userlogin=123adsfjlk324

I am open to suggestions and of course alternatives. I have checked
out WebInject but this seems to be SO close I hate to drop it.

Lastly, I have tried check_curl, and extended it to support cookies.
This DOES work but I am getting (null) on the responses and the grep
never causes Nagios to fail regardless of a valid result being
returned.

Try using something besides  a ; to separate the user and userlogin or

Wrapping in quotes still made pushed the second value to another line.
Cookie:

Can the ; be escaped? I can't pass anything else.

You should use multiple -k to add more headers.

Per the Nagios doc, I also tried putting the ; in a $USERn$ variable &
passed that in my check but it still drops the second cookie value to
another line.

I tried multiple -k parameters to add more headers with the same
result.  This is the output from Nagios with a 400 Bad Request status.
I assume that is because the cookie is effectively broken.

GET http://mywebsite.com/home.aspx HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: check_http/v1.4.15 (nagios-plugins 1.4.15)
Connection: close
Host: mywebsite.com
Cookie: user=4reqrerqwr
userlogin=123adsfjlk324


cURL via the CLI is almost identical, but the Cookie: is kept on one
line.

GET http://mywebsite.com/home.aspx HTTP/1.1
Connection: close
Host: mywebsite.com
Cookie: user=4reqrerqwr;userlogin=123adsfjlk324

I am workign with a site which i have being monitored by nagios, and for

some reason when check_http runs it gets a 404, but if you go to the 
domain the page exists and the site exists.

Would this be a false positive, and if so how can i fix it.

Also another interesting matter is that when i try and run the script to

check http from command line it times out even after increasing the time

out timefrom the default 10 seconds to 20 for instance. Any ideas would 
be greatly appreciated.

Hi All,

I run a Nagios 2.6 installation and have a custom notification script
for sending out SMSes.

A common complaint I have from people on-call is the fact they receive
warnings for servers that reach warning level for storage.

What I'd like to do is customise my notification script so that it only
sends storage warnings (and their accompanying recoveries) as SMSes
during business hours only.

Effectively, I'd like it to do the following (only for services of type
"STORAGE"):

OK -> WARNING: No Alert
WARNING -> OK: No Alert

WARNING -> CRITICAL: Alert
CRITICAL -> WARNING: Alert

OK -> CRITICAL: Alert
CRITICAL -> OK: Alert

I have no problem implementing this functionality, provided I can work
out what the previous state is. Is there a way through the Nagios API
that would allow me to query what the previous state was before the
current level, or would I be better off tracking this through the
notification script?

Thanks,
Jonathan

How comes you don't simply make a service template for these checks, or
simply
add the notification particulars to the storage based services? My guess
is a one
time tweak of the service def to a new template might allow you to solve
this and
adjust easily in the future.

Hi Joseph,

Thanks for the reply.

This would make sense, however I still want to make sure we get email
notifications when warnings occur.

Unless there's a way we can do this with a services template as well?

Thanks,
Jonathan
