<p>Hi list,</p>
<p>I'm using nagios 3.2.0 and I'm currently in the situation that I have an error somewhere in my config files which I can't trace back.<br />When starting nagios with the '--verify-config' option and pointing to my main config file I get following output: (I have replaced sensitive data with xxxxx)<br />In this (development/test) setup I currently have 1 config file for each host, which results into a huge amount of separate config files, but they're all processed without any apparent problem.<br />Nowhere along the way there's an error or even warning reported.<br /><br />It's not that processing the last file before the 'Error' is the culprit, because removing that, results nagios to stop on another position with the same error.<br />Going back to the last thing I have configured is also not an option as I have reconstructed my config files by parsing the objects.cache file.<br />I already scanned all config files on non printable characters, nothing found either.</p>
<p>What could be causing the problem, rather, how to proceed troubleshooting this? <br />I guess Nagios not clearly reporting on the problem is a bug? <br />I can't post my config files for obvious reasons</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>Jelle</p>
