I have set up nagios nagios-1.3-14.fc4 in my FC4 server, the only
problem now is the email notification can't be send out.
The original notify-by-email in misccommands.cfg file is like below:
# 'notify-by-email' command definition
define command{
command_name notify-by-email
command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios *****nnNotification
Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$nnService: $SERVIC

n$OUTPUT$" | -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert - $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$
is $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
}
I changed it to :
# 'notify-by-email' command definition
define command{
command_name notify-by-email
command_line /bin/mail "%b" "***** Nagios *****nnNotification Type:
$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$nnService: $SERVIC
EDESC$nHost: $HOSTALIAS$nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$nState:
$SERVICESTATE$nnDate/Time: $DATETIME$nnAddi tional Info:n
n$OUTPUT$" | -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert - $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$
is $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
}
Basically I replaced /usr/bin/printf with /bin/mail.
And you don't have a valid command line left: after the pipe, there
should be a program to read the output from mail. And your invocation of
mail looks a little... non-standard to me.
In the /var/log/messages log I see the following error:
Warning: Attempting to execute the command "/bin/mail "%b" "***** Nagios
*****nnNotification Type: RECOVERYnHost: Server-1nState: UPnAddress:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" resulted in a return code of
127. Make sure the scri//pt or binary you are trying to execute actually
exists...
It's all there: the output from mail is piped to '-s' which, most
probably, is not installed on your system as an executable program in
the path.
Any kind help is highly appreciated!!
Why don't you try the original notification script and simply insert
your mail command between pipe and '-s'? The reason why it's missing, by
the way, is probably that configure couldn't identify your mailer.
