It seems that whatever you used to install nagios either didn't create the archives directory or created it in a different place than is defined in nagios.cfg. See if it was created elsewhere with 'locate archives'. In both cases your historical data has almost certainly not been retained. You can always just create the directory -- mkdir -p /opt/local/var/nagios chmod 755 /opt/local/var/nagios chown <your nagios user>:<your nagios group> /opt/local/var/nagios -- Marc _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
