NRPE: Unable to read output [How to Solve]

 

Last week, when Nagios was restarted, it encountered nrpe: unable to read output. After searching the Internet, it was found that many people would encounter this problem

 

About the problem I encountered at that time, I modified the Nagios configuration and the nrpe. Conf configuration of the client. After restarting nrpe.conf, Nagios starts to alarm “unable to read output”. This problem does not occur when the configuration is not modified. After checking the configuration several times, there is still no harvest. The client can get the information by executing the command, but Nagios gets the information “unable to read output”.

 

Solution process:

When killing nrpe, the nrpe process is not completely killed, and the new configuration cannot be loaded in.

 

Three possibilities of problems in “nrpe: unable to read output”

1. Wrong configuration of CFG file

2. Wrong path configuration, related to the path parameter

3. Check whether the permissions of the client nrpe are readable and can be executed by Nagios. If the Nagios permission is not enough, it needs to be raised.
