Are there are any errors in syslog? I'm guessing you've run out of memory? Or maybe the nagios user has reached a ulimit for maximum number of processes?

This is still a problem. The service won't stay running for a 24 hour period.. I don't know exactly how long it stays up, because I don't have any way of monitoring the service without it.. Kinda a vicious cycle.

I've tried Marca Ramos' suggestion of reducing the service reaper interval, but this didn't seem to help.

Please let me know if I can send any config files or anything that might help solve this puzzle.. it's really hurting us if our process isn't running, and SBC kills the T1s to one of our remote offices and we don't get paged (which is what happened right now :-\

I appreciate any help you can provide!

I upgraded to Nagios 2.1 over the weekend, and since then, I've been having some problems. It runs fine during the day, handles notifications fine, everything works great. When I come in the next day, the process has stopped, and the log file is full of this: [1144102973] Warning: The check of service 'ping' on host 'pmad- sw-01' could not be performed due to a fork() error. The check will
 be rescheduled.
[1144102973] Warning: The check of service 'ping' on host 'pkc- rt-01' could not be performed due to a fork() error. The check will
be rescheduled.
[1144102973] Warning: The check of service 'ping' on host 'pcc-sw- a9' could not be performed due to a fork() error. The check will
be rescheduled.
[1144102973] Warning: The check of service 'ping' on host 'evvlinlwt-ert-01' could not be performed due to a fork() error. The check will be rescheduled. And I mean full.. I monitor 87 hosts / 171 services, and it makes that log file a monster to dig through to find anything besides these errors.
My 'ping' check is as follows:
# 'check_ping' command definition
define command{
        command_name    check_ping
command_line $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -p 3
        }
And....
[EMAIL PROTECTED] libexec]# ./check_ping -help
check_ping (nagios-plugins 1.4.2) 1.49
Any ideas?
