NAGIOS 2.3.1 version issues

[tom.welsh at bt.com]

Hey All,
 
Its only a wild guess but there is a space in your config file name ....
 
config file '/opt/hptc/nagios/etc/xc- hostgroups.cfg',
 
xc- hostgroups.cfg
 
Should it not be xc-hostgroups.cfg.
 
Check your nagios.cfg file where you specified the above filename and
verify it is the same as the actual hostgroups.cfg file.
 
HTH

Hi all: 
             As I'm trying to verify the configuration file, I'm getting
this error message. We have this HP Cluster setup and NAGIOS is
installed there. There are 18 nodes(n1 through n18) n18 being the main
node. All the nodes are up and running. Can any one help me out? 
 
Best,
Sri

Reading configuration data...

Warning: Could not get group entry for 'nagios'

'/opt/hptc/nagios/etc/xc- hostgroups.cfg', starting on line 90)

     Check your configuration file(s) to ensure that they contain valid
     directives and data defintions.  If you are upgrading from a
previous
     version of Nagios, you should be aware that some
variables/definitions 
     may have been removed or modified in this version.  Make sure to
read
     the HTML documentation regarding the config files, as well as the
     'Whats New' section to find out what has changed.

	Hi All:
	             I'm using NAGIOS 2.3.1 version.Installed and
configured it with authenticated users as nagiosadmin and guest. Now,
when I logged in as nagiosadmin and trying to  check if the services
under Monitoring list works, they dont seem to work and the information
that it provides is the below. I configured the additional permissions
to CGI also with system information, commands, all hosts,services
according to the documentation. It does not seem to work. Can anyone
help me? I'm a newbie and need some help. 
	 
	Whoops!

	Error: Could not read host and service status information!

	The most common cause of this error message (especially for new
users), is the fact that Nagios is not actually running. If Nagios is
indeed not running, this is a normal error message. It simply indicates
that the CGIs could not obtain the current status of hosts and services
that are being monitored. If you've just installed things, make sure you
read the documentation on starting Nagios. 

	Some other things you should check in order to resolve this
error include: 

	

	1.	Check the Nagios log file for messages relating to
startup or status data errors. 
	2.	Always verify configuration options using the -v
command-line option before starting or restarting Nagios! 
	3.	Make sure you've compiled the main program and the CGIs
to use the same status data storage options (i.e. text file or
database). If the main program is storing status data in a text file and
the CGIs are trying to read status data from a database, you'll have
problems. 

	

	Make sure you read the documentation on installing, configuring
and running Nagios thoroughly before continuing. If all else fails, try
sending a message to one of the mailing 
	 
	 
	 
	thanks 
	sri
