Hi, I've installed downtime-3.2 under Nagios 3.2.2. Everything appears to be working fine. schedule.cfg gets populated with what appears to be valid schedules. However, after creating a schedule and validating the configs, I get: Error: Invalid object definition type 'schedule' in file '/www/nagios/nagios-install/etc/servers/schedule.cfg' on line 1. I've been through the setup several times and I can't see that i missed anything. What's my issue? Thanks! |

The schedule.cfg file is only for the schedule software to use -- you should not include it in your nagios.cfg. Nagios does not understand it (though the syntax is similar) and produces an error. |

Resolved by moving schedule.cfg up one level up from cfg_dir=/www/nagios/nagios-install/etc/servers. It now resides in /www/nagios/nagios-install/etc. I no longer get the error and I am able to define recurring schedules. However, the downtime that is scheduled is not taking effect as alerts are still happening. This is the contents of schedule.cfg: define schedule { schedule_type host host_name leusaf07 user prod comment Recurring schedule time 04:00 duration 10 } Thanks! |

Now you have moved the schedule.cfg, make sure that the downtime_sched.cgi and downtime_job.pl both know where it is. Also make sure you are running the downtime_job.pl regularly via the nagios crontabs (so that it can scheudle the downtime) and it is not producing errors. When you test it, test using the Nagios user (if you test with root but run it via nagios' cron you might have a permissions issue) |

Hi. It seems to me I have some problems with Nagios 3.2.2. f I define a downtime in the webinterface for example a host, it doesn't actually schedule the downtime, sow the host doesn't go into the downtime. |

Are you certain that the cron job is running? The web interface just adds the recurring schedule definition; you need to run the cron job periodically as well to actually scheudle the downtime. |
