Make all error

[Shivkumar]

Hi,
Did you do a make all *before* you did a make install?
I think your CGIs have not been built yet!
other way to check is #cd /your/nagios/source/cgi
on my machine i do # cd /usr/local/src/nagios-2.9/cgi
Then do
# file tac.cgi
It should give you something like
tac.cgi: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for
GNU/Linux 2.6.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped
See the last two words?
now when i go to the nagios install directory,
#cd /usr/local/nagios/sbin
and then do #file tac.cgi
I get
tac.cgi: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for
GNU/Linux 2.6.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
Here it says "stripped".

Strip basically removes all symbols from the executable so that it cant
be reverse engineered.
So when it says format not recognized, it means that your cgis have not
been built yet.

Regards,
Shiv
