Hello -- I checked the icinga.cfg file for the line that was mentioned in the posting, and I confirmed its existence. However, when I next went to the etc/modules directory, there was no idoutils.cfg at that location.
The ido2db utility is working, and its configuration file is located in the /usr/local/icinga/etc directory. When I did the initial configuration of icinga, I made sure to include the idoutils option. The command options that I used during the configuration process was the following: ./configure' '--with-command-group=icinga-cmd' '--enable-idoutils' $ac_configure_extra_args --no-create --no-recursion I did a search for the idoutils.cfg file throughout the entire root filesystem, and there was no listing of it. Do I need to start the installation process from the beginning, and if so, what is the correct syntax to use in order to get the idoutils module to work? -----Original Message----- From: Carl R.

Also, the configuration for this customarily resides in ${prefix}/etc/modules/idoutils.cfg so you do NOT need to add it to the main configuration file. There should also be a line of: cfg_dir=/usr/local/icinga/etc/modules in the ${prefix}/etc/icinga.cfg file -- that line will cause Icinga to read every file in the "etc/modules" directory that ends in ".cfg" and include it into the global configuration. The change in location and name was driven by compatibility and packaging issues; the change allows Icinga to be "more correctly" packaged for various operating systems (not just Linux, mind) going forward. > However, when I ran the verification command syntax on the new version > of the file, the following error message appeared on-screen. > > Reading configuration data... > Error in configuration file '/usr/local/icinga/etc/icinga.cfg' - Line 1487 > (NULL value) > Error processing main config file! What lies on line 1487 of ${prefix}/etc/icinga.cfg? There is likely some sort of syntax error in the vicinity of 1487 in your .cfg file, or a missing argument that's required. Watch especially for mismatched braces.
