check_rsync: (Service check did not exit properly)

[Ryan Rawdon]

Hey everyone,

I recently installed Nagios on a new system and migrated all of my 
configs and everything over.  Everything is working fine, except for 
check_rsync, which fails on all hosts with "(Service check did not exit 
properly)."

I have tried disabling the embedded perl interpreter (even though it 
worked fine in the last install), but that didn't appear to do anything 
except change the output to "null".

Running the plugin by hand works 100% fine.

What else should I check?  Here's the output with embedded perl (which 
is one of the things that led me to believe it was an embedded perl issue)

Here's the output with embedded perl turned up (and I've since cranked 
up the logging level a bit):

... and it is when it is running like this with embedded perl off which 
results in "(null)" (instead of "(Service check did not exit 
properly)")on my services summary page as well a critical state.

I look forward to hearing what suggestions you might have
