Had same trouble's with the *** rh9

http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/release-notes/x86/



export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 to get back the normal thread libaries
/etc/init.d/nagios start





wie switched, after much more redhat related troubles/changes,  all servers to debian 


if that doesn't work try to find a child process and strace it down and try to find out where it hangs


strace -p <PID>

Subject: [Nagios-users] <defunct> Process

Hi all.

I run nagios 1.2 on redhat 9.

I always have a nagios process like this:

nagios 22138  0.0  0.0  0  0 ?   Z   Jul31  0:00 [nagios <defunct>]

Also my nagios has gotten stucked:

Process Status Information 
Process Status:   WARNING   
Check Command Output:  Nagios problem: located 27 processes, status log
updated 199792 seconds ago   


The questions:

1 - How can I discover what is causing the <defunct> process?

2 - May the <defunct> process be the cause of nagios stucking?

3 - What are the possible causes for nagios stucking?

Regards,

Wilson
