Hi: We just started with nagios two days ago and are probably doing something stupid. We just can't get 'check-host-alive' or 'check-ping' to work.
The web browser status report shows that our servers are down when we know they are up: /bin/ping -n -U -w 30 -c 5 64.68.144.25 CRITICAL - Could not interpret output from ping command But yet when I run the same command from the command line I get a normal result: # /bin/ping -n -U -w 30 -c 5 64.68.144.25 PING 64.68.144.25 (64.68.144.25) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 64.68.144.25: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.162 ms 64 bytes from 64.68.144.25: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.122 ms 64 bytes from 64.68.144.25: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.129 ms 64 bytes from 64.68.144.25: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.131 ms 64 bytes from 64.68.144.25: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.145 ms and permissions are open for nagios to execute the ping command and when I execute the 'check_ping' command directly with: libexec# ./check_ping -H 64.68.144.76 -w 3000.0,80% -c 5000.0,100% -p 5 PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 0.14 ms I get a good result We're using CentOS 3.6, Nagios 3.03 and nagios-plugins-1.4.11 Any ideas would be appreciated. We need to get this working. Thanks. Best Regards, Jeff Koch ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
