Watchdog can't start : Prob with wdcollect

[Thundervogel]

Using:

OS : OPenSuse 12.1
Plesk Panel : 11.0.9
Watchdog 2.0.3


When I try to start the Watchdog i get the following messsage:

Error occurred while calling the module utility wdservice: 'Start wdcollect'

Has anybody any idea ?

Thank you sooo much !


P.S. : I guess it is a communication problem with the dbus ?

Do you have any error messages when you try to run wdcollect manually with

# /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/modules/watchdog/wd --start-wdcollect

?

$ /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/modules/watchdog/wd --start-wdcollect

Failed to get D-Bus connection: No connection to service manager.
Error occurred while calling the module utility wdservice: 'Start wdcollect'

$ /etc/init.d/dbus status

Checking for service D-Bus daemon running

Somehow looks like a communication problem with the dbus and watchdog.

Can this be tuned in a better way ?

Strange. Never saw similar error in our internal resources. Looks like it is OS related problem. Try to find more details with help of section Watchdog (monit) in article http://kb.parallels.com/111283

I have immediately installed the plesk panel after installing the OpenSuse 12.1 provided by ISP Strato.

Therefore I guess everybody using the combination OpenSuse 12.1 + Plesk Panel 11.0.9 will get this error.

Did you find any related error messages in the logs?

Same problem here. Same provider - same OS - same Plesk.

Did you find a solution?

Both log-file-folder are empty ( /usr/local/psa/var/modules/watchdog/log/ and /usr/local/psa/var/modules/watchdog/log/)
Means - there is not even one log-file.

It seems it is common Linux issue. Try to google it. For example - http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/gentoo/user/251266
