check_logs.pl doesn't return output on RHEL 6 - RESOLVED

[Bret Goodfellow]

Temporary SOLUTION!


FYI - when I installed Nagios on RHEL6 I brought down nagios-3.2.3-3.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm.  This package included the check_logs.pl (1-2-2007).



I replaced check_logs.pl (1-2-2007) with a backlevel version check_logs.pl (6-7-2005).  This version works on RHEL6!  I am getting output now [messages ==> OK].  At this point in time I'm just going to use the older version of check_logs.pl (6-7-2005).



Thanks to all that responded.

Yes, my servers are x64.  The perl release on RHEL4 is v5.8.5, and the perl release on RHEL5 is v5.8.8, and the perl release on RHEL6 is v5.10.1.

I strongly suspect that this is a perl issue as RHEL 6 is using a newer perl version that is not entirely identical or compatible to the one used by RHEL 4 and RHEL 5.



Are you sure the other servers are x64 as well BTW?
