nagios.cmd permission issue

[Rutger Blom]

Have you verified that the user you log in with into the Nagios CGI has
permission to execute commands?

I've reconfigured nagios to run as the same user and group as that of the
web server.  Still getting this command file issue.



Any other suggestions?



Many thanks...

Yep, there's no question that's what it is, but I've set it up so that the
webserver user is part of the group that owns the rw directory with the
sticky bit set, but no luck (yet)

Your web server is trying to write to the pipe so it's whatever user your
web server is configured to run as.
