If you are not seeing any errors the start nagios using the following
/etc/init.d/nagios start
When i try to start the nagios i got the following error and found out there is an issue with nagios init script
[....] Starting nagios (via systemctl):
nagios.serviceFailed to start nagios.service: Unit nagios.service failed
to load: No such file or directory. failed!
Solution to nagios init script
Copy /etc/init.d/skeleton to /etc/init.d/nagios using the following command
cp /etc/init.d/skeleton /etc/init.d/nagios
Now edit the nagios file
vi nagios
add the following lines
DESC="Nagios"
NAME=nagios
DAEMON=/usr/local/nagios/bin/$NAME
DAEMON_ARGS="-d /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg"
PIDFILE=/usr/local/nagios/var/$NAME.lock
Save and exit the file
Finally you need to change the permissions of the file
chmod +x /etc/init.d/nagios
You can start the nagios using the following command
/etc/init.d/nagios start
