Hi, Nagios.cfg contains the following but there is no log of the event handler being called:
log_event_handlers=1 enable_event_handlers=1 Any suggestions?

You also need to enable event handlers in nagios.cfg -- $ grep enable_event_handlers etc/nagios.cfg enable_event_handlers=1 -- Marc -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kevin Manuel Sent: June-05-08 4:00 PM To: 'nagios Mailinglist' Subject: [Nagios-users] event handler not working Hi, I'm trying to get an event handler to work with no success so I'm hoping somebody might have some suggestions. It appears as though Nagios is not calling the event handler at all when a service check is performed. I don't think it's a permissions thing because the event handler works properly when run by the nagios user at the command line: i.e. [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# su - nagios -c "/usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/renotify-on-ok" I have removed all the arguments that are passed to the event handler to simplify troubleshooting and at this point the event handler should simply send an email message when the service check is performed. Code shown below. Thanks in advance. renotify-on-ok (only 3 lines): ============================== #!/usr/bin/perl $contactEmail = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; `/bin/echo -e ' event handler works! ' | /bin/mail -s '** event handler works **' $contactEmail`; misccommands.cfg: ===================== define command{ command_name renotify-on-ok command_line $USER1$/eventhandlers/renotify-on-ok } In templates.cfg the service is defined as follows: =================================================== define service{ use generic-service ; Name of service template to use name snmp-trap-alerting-service service_description SNMP Trap Alert is_volatile 1 check_period 24x7 active_checks_enabled 0 normal_check_interval 14400 retry_check_interval 14400 max_check_attempts 1 notification_interval 0 notification_period 24x7 notification_options w,u,c,r check_command check_none stalking_options o,w,u,c event_handler renotify-on-ok event_handler_enabled 1 register 0 } ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
