NSClient++ Help (#1) - Difference between Debug Mode and Normal? (#827) - Message List
Hi!
I´m trying to get the check_arcserve_jobstatus script running under NSClient++ 0.3.9. In Test Mode everything is fine, i get the result i expect. But in Normal Mode i get a socket timeout in nagios and in the Log there is a "WARNING 'Command (cscript.exe nologo scripts\check_arcserve_jobstatus.vbs) didn't terminate within the timeout period (60s)!'
As it runs fine in debug mode, I ask myself: What (the hell) is different between these both modes?
Looking forward to any suggestions!

Nothing really...
But one important thing can cause various strange and unpredictable issues:
- "normal mode" normally runs as a service by another user which can cause privilege issues.
I would enable debug log and check the log file. Enabling debug log gives you the same result as "/test" in the way of logging but still running in the same fashion as the "normal mode". I would also make sure that the script in question works well in "non console mode" as well as without administrative privileges.

It works now! I changed the service to run with administrator privileges and now everything is fine! Thanks a lot for your help! Keep up the good work on this!
By the way: I had a lot of trouble with restarting the service after changing something in the nsc.ini. The ports stayed in "waiting_closing" and the service didn't run anymore. So i had to restart the whole machine after every change. I reproduced this on two virtual servers with windows 2008 R2.
