Hi,
Sorry, my email client decided the the -- was the end of the message and
didnt recopy the rest of the configuration when I followed it up, ive
included these again below,
Joe suggested that I check the nagios.log file this was included also
and it dosnt show the messages at all, just the services getting the
errors and nothing else (It was running for about 30 minutes after it
detected the service problem, and all it done was repeat the services
were Critical)
If its a config issue, then please let me know what wrong (or if you
need more information) as it really has me stumped.
Here is the configs that I originally had posted, (Ive changed the --
File... to --8<-- so it dosnt get knocked off next time)
--8<----8<-- Original post information --8<----8<--
--8<-- nagios.cfg event stuff --

[1092451070] Nagios 1.1 starting... (PID=28391)

66.70.72.180
[1092451345] SERVICE ALERT: creeper;FreshClam;CRITICAL;HARD;1;CRITICAL -
process freshclam is not running !
--8<--
Running the command does work as the user nagios, but even if the
contents of the command is:
/bin/echo "it ran" >/tmp/nagios.event
it dosnt create the file /tmp/nagios.event (which ive ensured dosnt
already exist and the permissions are correct)
Can anyone see any reason why nagios is not running (or even just
logging) the event? I did notice that the service alert says this is
HARD, since nagios has just come up and there was no status file before
hand it should be SOFT.
Any help would be appreciated,
