Bug#339366: [Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#339366: After update, Nagios runs, but no status

[Daniel Pocock]

I've now discovered the cause of this problem.

The /var partition was full.  It had been eaten up mostly by the 
contents of /var/cache/apt/ (I did apt-get dist-upgrade yesterday).

Before reporting these troubles, I had actually checked syslog, and 
Nagios logs very little, apart from this:

Nov 15 21:57:26 th5 nagios: Nagios 1.3 starting... (PID=14209)

Therefore, I would suggest that Nagios should log an error if it can't 
write status.log due to disk space constraints or any other IO failure.

Regards,

Daniel
