Non obvious 127 plugin error

[Justin T Pryzby]

You can also strace the main nagios process:
strace -fs999 -e execve -p PID_OF_NAGIOS
or
sudo strace -fs999 -e execve -p `ps o pid h -C nagios3 --sort start_time |sed q` 2>&1 |grep -Fw execve |grep -Fw check_dig

127 is the return status of the shell when a command isn't found:
justinp at justinp:~$ asdf; echo $?
bash: asdf: command not found
127

man sh => /EXIT STATUS/

Simplify data backup and recovery for your virtual environment with vRanger. 
Installation's a snap, and flexible recovery options mean your data is safe,
secure and there when you need it. Data protection magic?
Nope - It's vRanger. Get your free trial download today.
