I thought about this, I will try to run it at 2 minutes past or something and see how it goes...

Hi all,

I've got a weird thing that I've noticed. I have an external script to use the check_nagios plugin to make sure nagios itself is running. I have this cronned to run every 10 minutes and if nagios is found to not be running then I get an email warning me of this.

The problem I'm having is that every single night at midnight exactly I always get an email saying that nagios is not running, the explanation being the output of the plugin as follows:

NAGIOS CRITICAL: Cannot parse Nagios log file for valid time


Are you rotating the log files every day? have you tried to run the cron job on an offset?

This is followed by several Recovery Alert emails for a handful of the 112 services I currently monitor reporting that the service is ok. This is strange because I never received any Alert emails that the services were down. I suspect there is nothing wrong with the services at all but this is a nagios quirk or some bug in my configuration or the way I am doing things.

This occurs every single night. I am running nagios 2.5 with nagios-plugins 1.4.3.

Any ideas what I can do about this?
