Package: nagios2
Version: 2.6-2+etch1
Severity: important
I tried to enable "flap checking" in the Tactical Overview page (after
enabling external commands in the config).
The Commit button got a "can't stat /var/.../nagios.cmd". An old thread in
a Debian list from 2006 (IIRC) said something about enabling rx
permissions on /var/lib/nagios2. I did that, and the message changed to
something about not being able to open the command for update. I changed
the permissions on the file to 777, and it worked.
Then I noticed that the file's group owner was nagios. Changing this to
www-data allowed me to reset the permissions to 770.
I hope this is useful info -- I've never used reportbug before.
Bottom line: there's likely a directory permissions problem, and there's
definitely a file ownership problem in /var/lib/nagios2/rw/nagios.cmd.
I think...
