Weird failure-to-count error

[Steven Schwartz]

Sadly, we're running 2.5 (looking to upgrade/switch to icinga later in the year, still figuring out which), and the system never gets to checking for a host failure; indeed, once we get the first failure (Current attempt: 1/3), it never appears to go back and check again.

So, I'll look at the patch you made, but I don't think it's the same problem. Thank you, though!

I have a test (proprietary internal test) that runs, reports critical (not surprising, as it's doing a web submit to a non-running webserver), which then fails again every 15 minutes; and never moves from "Current Attempt: 1/3", and therefore does not notify.

Interestingly enough, the subsequent failures do not log; the only way I was able to tell that, in fact, they had failed was checking the "Last Check Time" and "Next Scheduled Active Check" and seeing them advance, while the "Current Attempt" remained stable.

The "Current State Duration" is updated correctly, but it still does not page.

Has anyone seen a problem like this before, and if so, what did you do to fix it?

If this is:
  * On Nagios 3.2.3
  * Has a host failure and
  * Is not the service that noticed that the host failed

Then you probably have the bug documented here: http://bit.ly/dKykJr

I've patched in the latest CVS, but no release is made yet.

Does this fix it for you?
