How to check SWITCH is alive

[bulledk]

fping must be setuid root.

chown root:root /usr/sbin/fping
chmod 4755 /usr/sbin/fping

That didnt solve my problem.

I have the same problem.

In my error column i see "/tmp/zabbix_server_16319.pinger: [13] Permission denied"

Almost tried everything in this forum... Please help

how about

perms /usr/sbin/fping

??

why
# Database user

DBUser=root

set to zabbix

[bulledk]

how about

perms /usr/sbin/fping

??

why
# Database user

DBUser=root

set to zabbix

-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 35320 Mar 15 17:43 /usr/sbin/fping

the DBUser is now set to zabbix

Hi, yes its solved, when I reinstalled version 1.8.2 to a new server.

If you running zabbix as root, it schould do it, but if you running it as zabbix user, try to chown root:zabbix

[benito103e]

[benito103e]

Thanks a lot, I just made a :

chmod 777 -R /tmp

And it works.

But why? what was the reason of the problam? (fping use /tmp? )
