Hi,
Even stranger this now only allows me to add 234 hosts. Adding 235 hosts causes
the error.
I added a another dummy host "test-host2" and it works again
Checking services...
Checked 1339 services.
Checking hosts...
Warning: Host 'test-host' has no services associated with it!
Error: Contact group 'nobody' specified in host 'test-host' is not defined
anywhere!
Warning: Host 'test-host2' has no services associated with it!
Error: Contact group 'nobody' specified in host 'test-host2' is not defined
anywhere!
Checked 235 hosts.
Checking host groups...
I tested moving the files from the template.cfg to another .cfg file and the
error reoccurs.
Regards,
Conor

Hi,
Ok we now seem to have it a little further. At your request by adding a dummy
host seems to have sorted the issue.
Any thoughts as to why this may be?
Running pre-flight check on configuration data...
Checking services...
Checked 1339 services.
Checking hosts...

No, you don't need to. A single install of nagios can monitor
thousands of hosts and services (providing the hardware resources are
there).

You've either encountered a never-before-seen bug or you have a
genuine error in your configuration files. Please post the template
definition and a host definition that references it. Please post an
'ls -l' of the config files and the results of 'egrep "^cfg_" /usr/
local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg'.
Also try adding a dummy host in the same file that you have the
template defined --
define host{
use linux-server ; Name of host
template to use
host_name test-host
alias test-host
address 1.1.1.1
contact_groups nobody
}
