Hi

I am running Nagios 1.2 on RedHat 9. I have check_log set up to monitor oracle errors. A cron jobs copies a fresh copy of the appropriate log file to the nagios server every 5 min; The service is checked every 12 minutes. Every once in a while (no pattern) I'll get a very odd and false alarm, indicating many instances of the string.

Since I'm a relative newbie, perhaps I don't have this optimally configured? I have another check_log set up in the same manner, just different log file and different string, and that works fine! If anyone has any suggestions or ideas why this would be behaving differently, I'd greatly appreciate it. thanks much in advance.


here is the error message
