CMK version: cee 2.2.0p26
OS version: Rocky Linux 9.4

Error message: May 20 09:53:02 monitoring systemd[6123]: Failed to acquire watch file descriptor: Permission denied

We installed this new host last week and imported a checkmk backup. Everything is running but this error now shows up in the journal and we do not know where that comes from. It seems it has something to do with the monitoring user because the error lays around the monitoring user session as seen below

I am having the same error Failed to acquire watch file descriptor: Permission denied in my /var/log/messages file after performing a yum update on a Rocky Linux system. While running on version 9.3 of Rocky Linux, this error is not showing up. Immediately after the upgrade to version 9.4, we’re now seeing this error message in the log files. This is consistent across two servers which were both upgraded from version 9.3 to 9.4.

Not sure where to start looking or how to update permissions for some file descriptor. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :+1:
