hi guys,

I have installed nagiosql und trying now to finish up the installation/configuration.

I try to restart nagios via nagiosQL-webinterface, but it does not work!!?? ...takes time and time for loading and does not bring back an answer.

what could be the reason??

thx in advance,

regards Matthias

Hi,
restart is not the correct word for this feature. NagiosQL is sending a "RELOAD" of all configuration files to the Nagios Commandfile. So, you need Nagios running and the correct path to your nagios command file.

hi Rouven,

alright! and already checked my entries in the domain config (cmd-file included), but this reload ist still not working.

it worked a few times at the beginning, but then suddenly this function was going down!?

is there anything else, what u can recommend me in this case?

Hi,
you should check first if Nagios is able to write to the command file by using the one of the functions like "Re-schedule the next check of this service" within Nagios itself?
If this is possible, please have a look at the file permissions of your nagios.cmd file. You need nagios and the webserver to read/write the file. For further debugging I recommend to open a "tail -f nagios.cmd" and press restart via NagiosQL.

Cheers,

hi,
right, checked commands in nagios like you described and have noticed that these commands have the same problem, puhh!

well then I checked the directory and file permissions and couldn't really find anything.

dont know whats going on there.

well I am now going to roll back to start and install my nagiosql one more time.

if I get the same problem I ll let u know.

thx so far!

cheers
Matthias
