problem starting nagios

[Steve Loughran]

obvious question, but you have installed the nagios plugins, havent you?
They do not come as part of the standard nagios install, you have to do that
seperately...

> Hello,

> I seem to be having a problem starting nagios.  It all has to do with the
status.log file.  Everytime I start nagios it cannot find any hosts/services
due to the fact that it did not create a status.log file.  While nagios is
running in the background, I did a "touch status.log"  as well as "chown
nagios:nagios status.log"  and "chmod 644 status.log"  then I did a
"kill -HUP nagios.pid"  It then proceeded to change status.log to
status.sav.  The contents of the file are as follows:

and it says that everything is running fine.  This is the only error message
that I have found to show up.  The nagios service starts just fine.  Would
anyone happen to know exactly why this would be happening?  Thanks!
