Problem with External Commands and Nagios 3

[Maxime Alarie]

Good day,

 

This is my 1st post,  and I am also new to  nagios.

 

I have installed Nagios3 on a  Ubuntu Server VM, and I am learning it.
I have installed Nagios3, a with the nsclient on my own  Windows laptop
as well.  

I can see my laptop  is UP on  the Nagios3's web inrterface, but that's
about it.. The way I  have cretaed my config file for my laptop is  by
copying the localhost_nagios2.cfg file, then replaced  127.0.0.1 by my
IP and  localhost by my hostname, and renamed the file  to
penang_nagios2.cfg

 

 

When I go to the interface, I select my laptop on the list and then
click Re-schedule the next check of this host..  I get this error
message:

 

Error: Could not stat() command file '/var/lib/nagios3/rw/nagios.cmd'!

The external command file may be missing, Nagios may not be running,
and/or Nagios may not be checking external commands.

An error occurred while attempting to commit your command for
processing.

 

 Any help would be  apreciated.

 

 

Regards
