Hi,
I installed a ubuntu server and installed nagios to test our configuration on a
new version of linux other than Fedora
We have the same problem in that we cannot add more than 226 hosts and we get
the below error
Processing object config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/xxxx.cfg'...
Error: Template 'linux-server' specified in host definition could not be not
found (config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/xxxxhosts.cfg', starting on
line 78)
Error processing object config files!
***> One or more problems was encountered while processing the config files...
Check your configuration file(s) to ensure that they contain valid
directives and data defintions. If you are upgrading from a previous
version of Nagios, you should be aware that some variables/definitions
may have been removed or modified in this version. Make sure to read
the HTML documentation regarding the config files, as well as the
'Whats New' section to find out what has changed.
r...@mon:/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects#
We are running a single monitoring server. Does this mean we are going to have
to look at our overall architecture and look at distributed monitoring or
similar?
Does anyone have any experience of this type of issue?
Regards,
Conor

Hi,
Tested all the order of cfg files and it always shows the error on bottom cfg
file.
If I use the cfg_dir the file order they it points at this as the source of the
error.
There is nothing { } missing off the files.
I even moved the cfg files to a test Fedora machine and I get the same error. I
think it may be due to the Fedora OS
Any thoughts of users on what OS will take 1000's of hosts?
Regards,
Conor

Definitely strange. This is complaining about a completely different
and unrelated thing. Does the template 'linux-server' exist ('name
linux-server')? Is it in the same file as the host definition you are
trying to add?
- If so, are you accidentally breaking that definition, removing the
final } perhaps or something like that?
- If not, is the file it is in specified as a cfg_file in nagios.cfg
or in a cfg_dir? If cfg_file, what is the load order (not sure it
matters though but might be interesting).
- Does it help you move it to the top of the load order?
