FW: NDOUtils Error writing to data sink! Some output may get lost. xxx queued items to flush

[FTL Nagios]

Ok so for no apparent reason as nothing has changed from me writing the
original email the log has now logged something new

 

[1328289822] ndomod: Successfully reconnected to data sink! 0 items lost,
328 queued items to flush.

[1328289822] ndomod: Error writing to data sink! Some output may get lost.
47 queued items to flush.

 

[1328289838] ndomod: Successfully reconnected to data sink! 0 items lost,
189 queued items to flush.

[1328289838] ndomod: Successfully flushed 189 queued items to data sink.

[1328289838] ndomod: Error writing to data sink! Some output may get lost.

[1328289838] ndomod: Please check remote ndo2db log, database connection or
SSL parameters

[1328289854] ndomod: Successfully reconnected to data sink! 0 items lost,

[1328289854] ndomod: Successfully flushed 192 queued items to data sink.

So it started at least flushing stuff if not logging

 

But then a few minutes later back to normal

 

[1328290414] ndomod: Successfully reconnected to data sink! 0 items lost,
397 queued items to flush

[1328290414] ndomod: Error writing to data sink! Some output may get lost.
139 queued items to flush

 

 

Nothing at all has changed.

 

This will drive me drink, I know it!!!!

Hi all,

 

Ubuntu 11.04 32bit Desktop edition

NDOUtils 1.4b9

 

 

 

Im trying to install NDOUtils so I can get Nagios writing its log files to
MYSQL.

 

But im not having much luck.

 

I have followed the install guide to the letter:
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/ndoutils/NDOUtils.pdf

 

When all said and done that fires out this entry in the nagios.log:

 

[1328283956] ndomod: NDOMOD 1.4b9 (10-27-2009) Copyright C 2009 Nagios Core
Development Team and Community Contributors

[1328283956] ndomod: Could not open data sink! I'll keep trying, but some
output may get lost.

[1328283956] Event broker module '/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndomod-3x.o'
initialized successfully.

[1328283956] Finished daemonizing. (New PID=5771)

 

 

 

So did a bit of googling and then :-

 

Chmod 755 /usr/local/nagios/bin/ndo2db-3x

Chmod 755 /usr/local/nagios/bin/ndomod-3x.o

 

 

 

Restarted the ndomod and nagios services/processes and got somewhere

[1328284715] ndomod: Successfully connected to data sink. 0 queued items to
flush.

[1328284715] Event broker module '/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndomod-3x.o'
initialized successfully.

[1328284715] ndomod: Error writing to data sink! Some output may get lost.

[1328284715] Finished daemonizing. (New PID=13760)

 

 

 

So did a bit more googling and I then:-

 

Chmod 775 /usr/local/nagios/etc/ndo2db.cfg

Chmod 775 /usr/local/nagios/etc/ndomod.cfg

Chown nagios:nagios /usr/local/nagios.etc.ndo*

 

 

 

Restarted the ndomod and nagios services/processes and got a bit further -
No check log/db/parameters error

 

 

[1328285023] ndomod: NDOMOD 1.4b9 (10-27-2009) Copyright C 2009 Nagios Core

[1328285023] ndomod: Successfully connected to data sink. 2793 queued items

[1328285023] ndomod: Error writing to data sink! Some output may get lost.

initialized successfully.

[1328285023] Finished daemonizing. (New PID=17107)

 

 

 

Then read to change the perms on the ndo.sock file, so:

 

Chmod 775 /usr/local/nagios/var/ndo.sock

 

 

But still the same output:

 

[1328285748] ndomod: NDOMOD 1.4b9 (10-27-2009) Copyright C 2009 Nagios Core

My 2 config files can be found here:

 

Ndomod.cfg - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/895609/ndomod.cfg

Ndo2db.cfg - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/895609/ndo2db.cfg

 

 

Can anybody please help me? This has to be permission related im sure of it
but I cannot solve it.

 

Thankyou in advance
