Hi folks, could someone help with nagios + ndoutil. I'm having a hard time to sync nagios to dump its information throught ndo to a mysql database. The scenerio is as follow: Nagios installation is not a problem, I set up and it works fine with the default value. ( Nagios 2.10). Install every thing obsvialy , Mysql 5.0 and client , Apache2 & PHP5. Now when comes down to install ndoutils-1.4b7, problems start to popup. Obs: installing ndoutils-1.4b7 its not a problem but, writing to data sink it is ( THE PROBLEM) 1 – Out put from ./configure ( Parts that have "no" while running the command ) : checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o <div style="border-style: none none double; border-color: -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color windowtext; border-width: medium medium 6.75pt; padding: 0cm 0cm 1pt;"> </div> checking limits.h presence... yes checking for limits.h... yes checking ltdl.h usability... no checking ltdl.h presence... no checking for ltdl.h... no checking math.h usability... yes checking math.h presence... yes <div style="border-style: none none double; border-color: -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color windowtext; border-width: medium medium 6.75pt; padding: 0cm 0cm 1pt;"> </div> checking signal.h presence... yes checking for signal.h... yes checking socket.h usability... no checking socket.h presence... no checking for socket.h... no checking stdarg.h usability... yes checking stdarg.h presence... yes <div style="border-style: none none double; border-color: -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color windowtext; border-width: medium medium 6.75pt; padding: 0cm 0cm 1pt;"> </div> checking for main in -lnsl... yes checking for socket in -lsocket... no checking for main in -lwrap... yes checking for strdup... yes checking for strstr... yes <div style="border-style: none none double; border-color: -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color windowtext; border-width: medium medium 6.75pt; padding: 0cm 0cm 1pt;"> </div> checking for compress in -lz... yes checking for mysql_store_result in -lmysqlclient... yes checking for mysql_connect in -lmysqlclient... no checking mysql/mysql.h usability... yes checking mysql/mysql.h presence... yes checking for mysql/mysql.h... yes MySQL library and include file(s) were found! checking for PQconnectdb in -lpq... no <div style="border-style: none none double; border-color: -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color windowtext; border-width: medium medium 6.75pt; padding: 0cm 0cm 1pt;"> </div> No problems while executing " MAKE" I followed as the README doc recommends inside the ndoutils-1.4b7. Copied all the files to the its right places as well as the database, create user and granted the permissions and password. I ran the command ./installdb ( No problems). I change the proper parameter in ndo2db.cfg ( user and password) I execute the command : /usr/local/nagios/bin/ndo2db -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/ndo2db.cfg Output from ls –la (inside the directory) xxxxx:/usr/local/nagios/var# ls -la total 224 drwxrwsr-x 5 nagios nagios 4096 2008-01-18 15:15 . drwxrwsr-x 8 nagios nagios 4096 2008-01-17 17:34 .. drwxrwsr-x 2 nagios nagios 4096 2008-01-18 00:00 archives -rw-r--r-- 1 nagios nagios 6 2008-01-18 12:39 nagios.lock -rw-rw-r-- 1 nagios nagios 148605 2008-01-18 15:15 nagios.log srwxrwxrwx 1 nagios nagios 0 2008-01-18 12:38 ndo.sock -rw-r--r-- 1 nagios nagios 12943 2008-01-18 12:39 objects.cache -rw------- 1 nagios nagios 14010 2008-01-18 14:39 retention.dat drwxrwsr-x 2 nagios nagios 4096 2008-01-18 12:39 rw drwxrwsr-x 3 nagios nagios 4096 2008-01-17 17:34 spool -rw-rw-r-- 1 nagios nagios 14061 2008-01-18 15:15 status.dat Every thing starts fine BUT……… That's the output, I got from nagios.log [1200676718] ndomod: Error writing to data sink!
