problem with runing netxms agent

[yos]

i have problem whene i run the netxms agent

/usr/local/bin/nxagentd –d
FATAL ERROR: Cannot open log file
Agent initialization failed

[victor]

Hi!

Check that user you are running agent under has access to log file specified in nxagentd.conf, and that path to the file exists.

hey
thank i fix it
now when i run this cmd:
/usr/local/bin/netxmsd -d
i get no output is that nrml ?

and thanks for ur help

Yes, there should be no output with '-d', it's daemon mode - it should silently detach and go to background.
Before running it as daemon, you can check that config files are good and agent is working properly by running it with '-D3' (3 - debug level, can be from 0 to 9)

[yos]

i run it :
/usr/local/bin/netxmsd -D3

and this is the result:
 Using configuration file "/etc/netxmsd.conf"
wht does it mean ?
thnks in advance

[alk]

Check that you have "LogFile" parameter in file /etc/netxmsd.conf

[yos]

yup i have  LogFile = /var/log/netxmsd i n /etc/netxmsd.conf

[alk]

Just realized – you running "netxmsd", but topic is about agent.

netxmsd - server binary
nxagentd - agent binary

There should be much more output with debug (-D) enabled, please post complete output and attach configuration files.

I had the same issue, but after following your instructions i managed to get agent running, but then i got 2 fail lines:

[23-Jul-2013 15:33:34.847] Failed to load agent's registry from file /usr/local/var/netxms/registry.dat
[23-Jul-2013 15:33:34.847] Failed to save agent's registry to file /usr/local/var/netxms/registry.dat: No such file or directory

Is that okey? Or how should i fix them?

[victor]

Hi!

It's not a big problem. Anyway, you can just create directory /usr/local/var/netxms to fix it.

Okey, thanks for respond! 

[Nikk]

And one more question,
 how can I get access to write logs into those netxmsd and nxagentd files?
I got them written only in syslog file!

[victor]

You should add parameter

LogFile = /path/to/log/file

to netxmsd.conf and nxagentd.conf respectively.
