Hi Hugo
Had the same problem a while back and it related to the case of my service_description, as in uppercase or lowercase. I had defined my normal service check for http and it included the following: service_description HTTP So, I made another check (for another server) that included this: service_description http://www.lincoln.ac.nz and I got the same exact error as you are getting when it tried to create the rrd for the http result. I am using the default NagiosGrap her template for the HTTP check, so it turned out that the regex check will not care about case when creating the servcieextinfo.cfg entry or looking for a match but will try to create the rrd file, but will cause fail with the "step" error. My solution after some very crude debugging was to change my service_desc ription in the lower example to service_description HTTP://www.lincoln.ac.nz and it worked. Now, not the best fix, but if this helps pin point the bit of the script that is causing the error, then that would be a good thing. Hope that helps in some way.
