Status file not updating ( ver. 3.0.6 )

[Yu Watanabe]

Thank you for the reply, Assaf.

Update of the status.dat file fails randomly, there are times when it succeeds,
I'd say the directory permission problem isn't the case.

stops the process of nagios.

I will check cron's. 

At worst , would it be useful to check the debug for nagios?

Thank you,
Yu Watanabe
