Hello,
I just to report that nagios-3.0.6 when build with the EMBEDDED_PERL
option dies with a segmentation fault when perl-5.8.9 is installed. It
runs fine when run from the command line with the -v or -s options (to
check the configs), but dies when one attempts to run "for real" in the
foreground or as a daemon.
I built a version with debugging symbols and ran it under gdb and it
said that there nagios received a segmentation fault from perl. There
was something in there about the perl taint check as well.
Unfortunately, I didn't save the exact message that I saw. The software
is in use on a production machine. If you really need the exact
message, I can take the machine out of service to reproduce the error,
but I don't want to if I don't have to.
I saw one other report of this problem on the net
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.nagios.user/59163
Sorry for the sketchy report,
I had a similar problem, with nagios segfaulting and dumping core after
perl upgrade.
It ended up being a problem with 64 bit ints in perl. I changed the
setting inadvertedly. Anyway I had to rebuild both perl and the ports
segfaulting.
