The script works fine when executed manually using the 'nagios' user which NRPE is running as: sh-2.05a$ /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_apache OK - 68 requests being processed. However, via NRPE: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H localhost -c check_apache OK - requests being processed. Below is the script. I've tried many different code variations, but end result is the same. I appreciate any insight as to what the issue could be. Thanks! </blockquote> </div> When you test at the command line, are you doing it as the nagios user? Looks like it could easily be a permissions issue. </blockquote></div>
