Nagios External Commands

[Gavin Williams]

HI there, 

 

I'm having some issues with Nagios External commands. 

Basically, they're not working. 


I've compiled Nagios with cmdgroup=nagcmd, added Nagios and apache users
to the nagcmd group. 

I can see the commands being written to Nagios.cmd in /opt/nagio/var/rw/
however they don't go anywhere from there...

 

The relevant lines in my Nagios.cfg file looks like this:

check_external_commands=1

command_check_interval=30s

command_file=/opt/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd

downtime_file=/opt/nagios/var/downtime.dat

comment_file=/opt/nagios/var/comments.dat

 

The permissions on the folder look like this:

drwxrwsr-x  2 nagios nagcmd 4096 Apr  2 16:42 .

-rw-r--r--  1 apache nagcmd  249 Apr  2 16:45 nagios.cmd

 

Any ideas what it could be?

 

Cheers

Gavin
