**cadbury** · 27-11-2006, 12:07

and now if you start it?

/etc/init.d/zabbix-agentd start

**MrRobbert** · 27-11-2006, 12:23

i cant start zabbix-agentd.pid but i can start zabbix-agent.pid...

root@VMWARESERVER01:/var/run/zabbix# /etc/init.d/zabbix-agentd start
-bash: /etc/init.d/zabbix-agentd: No such file or directory
root@VMWARESERVER01:/var/run/zabbix# /etc/init.d/zabbix-agent start
Starting Zabbix agent: zabbix_agentd
root@VMWARESERVER01:/var/run/zabbix#

**cadbury** · 27-11-2006, 18:24

ok, it seems to have no init.d script for agentd.
but running zabbix-agent is no good choice, because it's made to be run by a wrapper like xinetd.
zabbix-agentd is much more simple.

put the init.d script in /etc/init.d/ for agentd

**cadbury** · 27-11-2006, 18:27

wait, when you run /etc/init.d/zabbix-agent start, it starts agentd.
make a "ps -ax | grep zabbix" (yes it's a ps this time

),
if there are some zabbix_agentd processes, it should be all right

**MrRobbert** · 28-11-2006, 10:19

oke this is what it does...

root@VMWARESERVER01://# /etc/init.d/zabbix-agent restart

root@VMWARESERVER01://# ps -ax | grep zabbix
Warning: bad ps syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? See http://procps.sf.net/faq.html
5314 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep zabbix

it actually doesnt do anything anymore when i start it or restart it...

**cadbury** · 28-11-2006, 11:40

ok so it's not running
too bad

first of all, put the init.d script for agentd,
then retry starting

to see if it runs, make a "ps ax", you should see zabbix_agentd

if not, see the logs

**MrRobbert** · 28-11-2006, 11:57

So i have to create a new file:

/etc/init.d/zabbix-agentd

the content of this file will be:

Code:

#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:          zabbix-agent
# Required-Start:    $local_fs $network
# Required-Stop:     $local_fs
# Default-Start:     S
# Default-Stop:      0 6
# Short-Description: Start zabbix-agent daemon
### END INIT INFO
DAEMON=/usr/sbin/zabbix_agentd
NAME=zabbix_agentd
DESC="Zabbix agent"
PID=/var/run/zabbix-agent/$NAME.pid

test -f $DAEMON || exit 0

set -e

case "$1" in
  start)
        rm -f $PID
        echo "Starting $DESC: $NAME"
        start-stop-daemon --oknodo --start --pidfile $PID \
                --exec $DAEMON  < /dev/null &> /dev/null
        ;;
  stop)
        echo "Stopping $DESC: $NAME"
        start-stop-daemon --oknodo --stop --exec $DAEMON
        ;;
  restart|force-reload)
        $0 stop
        $0 start
        ;;
  *)
        N=/etc/init.d/$NAME
        echo "Usage: $N {start|stop|restart|force-reload}" >&2
        exit 1
        ;;
esac

exit 0

so i nano zabbix-agentd

put the script text in en i'll save it as zabbix-agentd

is this right or...?

**amcorreia** · 28-11-2006, 17:59

Hi,

this init.d script is pierced! (I tried use this script in debian and don't worked)

tri anything like this.

########################################
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/home/zabbix/bin
DAEMON=/usr/local/sbin/zabbix_server
NAME=zabbix_server
DESC="Zabbix Server"
PID=/var/run/zabbix/$NAME.pid # definido no arq de conf do server

test -x $DAEMON || exit 0
set -e
del_pid () {
if [ -f $PID ]; then
echo -n "Deleting pid... "
rm $PID
echo "OK"
fi
}

case "$1" in
start)
del_pid
echo "Starting $DESC: $NAME"
$DAEMON
;;
stop)
del_pid
echo "Stopping $DESC: $NAME"
killall -9 $NAME
;;
check_banco)
echo -n "Checando banco de dados: "
/usr/bin/mysqlcheck -u zabbix -p --silent --repair zabbix
echo "Completa"
;;
restart|force-reload)
$0 stop
$0 start
;;
*)
N=/etc/init.d/$NAME
echo "Usage: $N {start|stop|restart|check_banco|force-reload}"
#>&2
exit 1
;;
esac

exit 0

**cadbury** · 28-11-2006, 18:34

you can use both scripts.

give it the same rights than the other /etc/ini.d scripts
(I don't have a linux right now so i can't give you the exact rights)

permissions inside /etc/init.d are 755 and owner is root.root

**MrRobbert** · 29-11-2006, 11:51

oke i inserted the script, do i need to save the file with a specific extension i just saved it like 'zabbix-agent'

when i type /etc/init.d/zabbix-agent restart my host doesnt execute the script, at least that is how it seems to be...

???????????

Code:

sTH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/home/zabbix/bin
DAEMON=/usr/sbin/zabbix_agentd
NAME=zabbix_agentd
DESC="Zabbix Server"
PID=/var/run/zabbix-agent/$NAME.pid # definido no arq de conf do server

test -x $DAEMON || exit 0
set -e
del_pid () {
if [ -f $PID ]; then
echo -n "Deleting pid... "
rm $PID
echo "OK"
fi
}

case "$1" in
start)
del_pid
echo "Starting $DESC: $NAME"
$DAEMON
;;
stop)
del_pid
echo "Stopping $DESC: $NAME"
killall -9 $NAME
;;
check_banco)
echo -n "Checando banco de dados: "
/usr/bin/mysqlcheck -u zabbix -p --silent --repair zabbix
echo "Completa"
;;

$0 stop
$0 start
;;

**cadbury** · 29-11-2006, 17:00

name it zabbix_agentd, because zabbix_agent and zabbix_agentd are different things

it can confuse

i'm no specialist in init.d scripts so i can't help you here

is the pidfile the same than in the file zabbix-agentd.conf :
PID=/var/run/zabbix-agent/zabbix_agentd.pid

does the file /usr/sbin/zabbix_agentd really exists, and have correct rights?
mine is like this :
240 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 241565 Nov 17 16:07 zabbix_agentd

**amcorreia** · 29-11-2006, 20:09

....
more questions;

- You have compiled zabbix_agentd with shared library or static?
- where you installed zabbix_agentd ?
- where you installed zabbix_agentd.conf ?

I installed it with apt-get install zabbix-agent
i dont know if i had to choose something like library or static?

- where you installed zabbix_agentd ?

root@VMWARESERVER01:/etc/init.d# locate zabbix_agentd
/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf
/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf.dpkg-old
/usr/bin/zabbix_agentd
/usr/share/man/man1/zabbix_agentd.1.gz

- where you installed zabbix_agentd.conf ?

/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf
