Odd configuration with flap_detection_enabled on a service

[Tim Philips]

Hi All,

I hope someone can point me in the right direction but I'm getting very mixed results when enabling flap detection (via the object templates) for a given service.

I'm using Nagios 3.2.3 (on CentOS - a DAG RPM) and have enabled notifications globally (and can confirm this via the "Process Info" CGI - it says "Flap Detection Enabled? Yes").  I have defined a simple host configuration with the given service using a single template.  The template has flap_detection_enabled = 0 defined.  I have configured flap_detection_enabled = 1 on the service in question but via the Configuration > Services CGI I'm seeing "Enable Flap Detection No".  The only way I can get it to say Yes (indicating that it is using Flap Detection) is to remove the configuration from the service and either remove it from the template or change the template to flap_detection_enabled = 1.

I'm restarting the Nagios daemon each time I make changes to the configuration.

Has anyone else experienced this or am I totally off the mark?
