Contact Group in Nagios1.X and Nagios 2.x

[John Joseph]

Hi Qiang 
  I also faced the same problem + some other problem
in nagios.cfg 
    with the help from the mailing list , I was able
to solve it 

Three files I had to edit 
1>  nagios.cfg 
  In “nagios.cfg”   removed the reference of the
following lines , remark it or remove it 
  log_passive_service_checks=1
 inter_check_delay_methods=s
 
  this parameter are not there in 2.x 

2> hostgroups.cfg 
   In “hostgroups.cfg”  , I  remarked /removed  the
“contact_groups” reference

3> in hosts.cfg 
    In the template for the generic host definition ,
I added the “ contact_groups       yourcontact”
    or u can use in the host definition section of
hosts.cfg 
 
  Now check  using /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v
../etc/nagios.cfg
         Hope this is useful 
                   Thanks 
                       Joseph John
