[Monarch-users] New install issue - CONFIG ERROR! Restart aborted.

[Dan M <da...@st...>]

I am in the process of moving an existing installation of nagios 3.2.1 
with Centreon to nagios 3.5.0 with Monarch 2.5.0. The old nagios 
installation had it's config files kind of jacked up due to a handful of 
admins working with it over the years, but I finally for everything 
tidied up to the point that I can load the config files and do a 
pre-flight test with no errors and no warnings.

I can also commit with apparently no issues, but after printing out the 
results of the "nagios -v nagios.cfg" and showing 0 warning and 0 
errors, but still reports an error. Specifically, the last few lines of 
the "commit" screen show:

Total Warnings: 0
Total Errors: 0

Things look okay - no serious problems were detected during the 
pre-flight check.
Running configuration check... CONFIG ERROR! Restart aborted. Check your 
Nagios configuration.

So, what would seem to be the problem here? I'll dig in to the source 
code and see if I can figure it out for myself, but if someone else has 
seen this before I'd appreciate a pointer.

Also, a minor issue. In the "nagios main configuration" screen I still 
see lines for aggregate_status_updates, downtime_file, and comment_file 
variables. These are no longer needed in nagios 3.5.0 (the preflight 
check indicates that all status file updates are now aggregated, and 
downtime entries and comments are now stored in the status and retention 
files.
