RE: nagios 1.0 config files missing??

"where / how do i get the cfg files for the plugins ???"

There are no config files for the plugins but for the nagios process that uses the plugins. Do you "make install-config  # install sample-Files to /usr/local/nagios/etc" to generate sample config files? It also seems that you don't have the default directory structure of nagios? Perhaps the config files are somewhere, the nagios process can't find them?! To make things easier I recommend you to use the default structure "usr/local/nagios/" and so on.

Hi,

 

I've installed via debian package the latest nagios 1.0 and all the config has gone seemingly well until i went to

compile the plugins, im getting the error

 

[1042096870] Error: Host check command 'check-host-alive' specified for host 'printer1' is not defined anywhere!
[1042096870] Error: Host check command 'check-host-alive' specified for host 'printer2' is not defined anywhere!

 

and

 

[1042096870] Error: Service check command 'check_ftp' specified in service 'FTP' for host 'bashful' not defined anywhere!
[1042096870] Error: Service check command 'check_ping' specified in service 'PING' for host 'bashful' not defined anywhere!
[1042096870] Error: Service check command 'check_pop' specified in service 'POP3' for host 'bashful' not defined anywhere!

 

now from what I can gather, these should be defined in /etc/nagios/checkcommands.cfg ? and that file tells me to update

it via the update-nagios command, but it only creates a blank file becuase there are no cfg files in

/usr/share/nagios/pluginconfig

 

where / how do i get the cfg files for the plugins ???

 

all help appreciated, im tearing my hair out here trying to find a solution for it.

 

Please feel free to contact us with any further queries.

 

Thank You
