[Nagiosplug-help] check_file_age help

[Erik Cummings]

I had a problem like this on CentOS 5.  The problem was with mailq – I needed to give it SUDO no password – so that it had access to run mailq.  But it still wouldn’t work over NRPE.  Turns out that the CentOS 5 sudoers has a ‘requiretty’ set for all users!

 

I needed to add a nagios !requiretty or something like that.  Let me know if this is the case with you and I’ll look up my exact syntax.

Hi all:

 

Trying to work with check_file_age and getting the NRPE:unable to read output

What I am doing is

            check_file_age –w 900 –c 1200 –f /apps01/comergent/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.18/logs/catalina.out

 

If I run from command line it works but it is not working from nagios/NRPE.

 

Any feedbacks?

 

Thanks
