<div><tt>This feature (check for updates) does not appear to be
working for me. When 3.3.1 came out, I waited for a week, and
never saw the update available banner displayed on the Nagios
main landing page (main.php). I've been playing with the
main.php page to get it to display the date/time of the last
update check, and it returns blank (no value), so I'm assuming
that too mean it's not actually checking.</tt></div>

<div><tt> I am currently running Nagios 3.3.1 on the Novell SLES
v10 server (Nagios compiled from source). Can anyone give me
some troubleshooting steps to get me started? For example, is
there a way to enable logging of the check for updates
feature, and is there a way to manually start the update check
(the API, not the web page URL link)?</tt></div>

the core is scheduling call home events and saves the version
information and various other attributes in both status.dat and
retention.dat. the cgis (or the php part of it) parse that
information into a readable version onto the web.<br>

so i would guess if you don't allow the nagios core to phone home,
it won't show an updated version. scheduling cycle is somewhere
around 22 hours, changing is only possible if you recompile.<br>

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
