Package: nagios3 Version: 2.3-1 Severity: normal (this problem is being experienced on a self-made backport, so I've chosen normal rather than important as the priority. However I'm 99% sure this problem would also be exhibited in unstable but haven't had time to check).
When the embedded perl interpreter is enabled the Nagios binary looks for a script called p1.pl in $(bindir) (set to /usr/sbin by configure), however the debian package moves this file from $(bindir) to /usr/lib/nagios2. This causes the following error when the daemon is started: orwell:~# nagios2 /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg Nagios 2.3 Copyright (c) 1999-2006 Ethan Galstad (http://www.nagios.org) Last Modified: 05-03-2006 License: GPL Nagios 2.3 starting... (PID=21189) Can't open perl script "/usr/sbin/p1.pl": No such file or directory After roughly one minute the process exits. The log file contains [1148444358] Nagios 2.3 starting... (PID=21221) [1148444358] LOG VERSION: 2.0 [1148444432] Caught SIGSEGV, shutting down... Moving p1.pl to /usr/sbin (either physically or via symlink) resolves the problem and appears to make Nagios operate correctly. Please escalate this to important if you agree that this is likely to affect the packages in unstable as well. Cheers -- Matt Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mob +64 21 611 544 www.mattb.net.nz
