[Nagios-users] External Commands not working

[Scott G. <gwa...@ho...>]

I'm running Nagios v.2.0b1 on Fedora 3.0 Apache 2.0.52. When trying to 
execute external commands from the web interface I get this error:

Error: Could not stat() command file '/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd'!

The external command file may be missing, Nagios may not be running, and/or 
Nagios may not be checking external commands.

An error occurred while attempting to commit your command for processing.

I've followed the directions exactly (several times!). Apache is a member of 
Nagiocmd group, in fact I've tried giving full permissions to everyone on 
the '/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/ folder and all its files with no success.

Nothing shows up in the httpd logs. The system message log shows this:

avc:  denied  { getattr } for  pid=5446 exe=/usr/local/nagios/sbin/cmd.cgi 
path=/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd dev=dm-0 ino=3591465 
scontext=root:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t tcontext=root:object_r:usr_t
