Message #35 received at 411046@bugs.debian.org (full text, mbox, reply):

Hi,  Creating a subdirectory owned by nagios:nagios under /var/run and changing the config to put the PID file there would solve this problem quite cleanly.  Still, maybe it would be better if the daemon dropped its privileges before creating the PID file, not after.  Currently, in src/nrpe.c:                  /* write pid file */                 if(write_pid_file()==ERROR)                         return STATE_CRITICAL;                                  /* drop privileges */                 drop_privileges(nrpe_user,nrpe_group);                  /* make sure we're not root */                 check_privileges();  What do you think? --  Regards, Feri.

On Sun 14 Sep 2008, Luk Claes wrote:  > +  * Remove pid file before creating a new ones (Closes: #411046).  This is not the issue; the problem is that when nrpe is stopped, it can't remove its own pid file, as it's written by root in /var/run/ which is only writeable by root. This leads to an error message sent to syslog. When starting, the old one is overwritten without any problem.  As discussed earlier, the solution is to create a subdirectory in /var/run/ (just like nagios itself does), chown it to nagios (if not already done) and write the pidfile there.  I suggest using /var/run/nagios3/ as nagios uses that as well.   Paul PS: pending? since September?
