<div>what threw me were the inconsistancies, plus the error i received after clicking host detail. I did a ps axu | grep nagios and had like six instances of nagios running. I killed them each one by one then restarted the service. Problem seems to have gone away. </div> <div>THanks,</div> <div>Justin</div> <div> </div> <div>On 7/12/06, Patrick Morris <<a href="mailto:patrick.morris@hp.com">patrick.morris@hp.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid">On Wed, 12 Jul 2006, Justin Craig wrote: > I can try this. > > Any other ideas - could it be a plugin issue? > > > On 7/12/06, Hugo van der Kooij <<a href="mailto:hvdkooij@vanderkooij.org">hvdkooij@vanderkooij.org</a>> wrote: > > > >On Wed, 12 Jul 2006, Justin Craig wrote: > > > >> Question: I've got nagios up and running and have defined hosts, > >> hostgroups, service, etc.....

Try restarting Nagios first. This one's actually a FAQ: <a href="http://www.nagios.org/faqs/viewfaq.php?faq_id=21&expand=false&showdesc=false"> http://www.nagios.org/faqs/viewfaq.php?faq_id=21&expand=false&showdesc=false</a> Suggesting anything else at this point would be pure speculation, especially when there's a likely cause that hasn't been ruled out yet. </blockquote></div> -- - Justin
