Hi Everyone:
i am getting the following message error when trying to run nagios. It runs but I am concerned about this message. does anyone have a solution to this problem or something I might have overlooked.
Your servi ce check results are too large is my guess. Is there any way you can make it shorter? For example: doing a disc check for one filesystem, instead of all filesystems with one command. The “all filesystems” check may be too lage of an output. Doing just one filesystem the output would be much shorter. Post the output of your service check. I bet it’s cut off.
I’m getting this one too, even when I run “nagios -v” with the sample config file, so it’s not to do with any single service message.

Nagios version 2.0
Maybe to do with compiling on 64 bit machines?
It doesn’t appear to be serious, if nagios is running. Why anyone would want ouput that large anyway? That shouldn’t be a concern unless you actually have a reason to have ouput that is as long as a short novel.
