--- Begin Message ---Package: nagios-plugins Version: 1.4.5-1 Severity: important Tags: patch mysql.cfg appears to assume that "-H hostname" specifies a host and "-p password" specifies a password. In fact "-H" specifes "use HTML output", the $HOSTADDRESS$ value is treated as a database name, "-p" specifies "prompt me for a password" and $ARG2$ would be another database name if it weren't a syntax error to specify two of them. The correct command line syntax for MySQL 5 (as shipped with Etch) is: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_mysql -h $HOSTADDRESS$ -u $ARG1$ -p$ARG2$ (which uses $HOSTADDRESS$ as the host, $ARG1$ as the username and $ARG2$ as the password). To make this as simple as possible to fix I have also included a patch that corrects the arguments: --- /tmp/mysql.cfg 2007-10-21 19:08:14.000000000 -0300 +++ mysql.cfg 2007-10-21 19:11:16.000000000 -0300 @@ -7,5 +7,5 @@ # 'check_mysql_cmdlinecred' command definition define command{ command_name check_mysql_cmdlinecred - command_line /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_mysql -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -u $ARG1$ -p $ARG2$ + command_line /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_mysql -h $HOSTADDRESS$ -u $ARG1$ -p$ARG2$ } -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-5-686 Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages nagios-plugins depends on: ii nagios-plugins-basic 1.4.5-1 Plugins for the nagios network mon ii nagios-plugins-standard 1.4.5-1 Plugins for the nagios network mon nagios-plugins recommends no packages. -- no debconf information--- /tmp/mysql.cfg 2007-10-21 19:08:14.000000000 -0300 +++ mysql.cfg 2007-10-21 19:11:16.000000000 -0300 @@ -7,5 +7,5 @@ # 'check_mysql_cmdlinecred' command definition define command{ command_name check_mysql_cmdlinecred - command_line /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_mysql -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -u $ARG1$ -p $ARG2$ + command_line /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_mysql -h $HOSTADDRESS$ -u $ARG1$ -p$ARG2$ }
