[1216840237] SERVICE NOTIFICATION: nagiosadmin;jwilliamspc;PrintSpooler;CRITICAL;service-notify-by-email;Spooler: Stopped Still no email though so the issue may be something in the send_mail script or one of the configs, although they look good to me. Here's what I have so far. send_mail.pl (at least the part I am supposed to edit: #!/usr/bin/perl -w # There are commented examples here of the commands.cfg and contacts.cfg files use strict; use Net::SMTP; use Getopt::Std; my $mailhost = 192.168.1.9 ; my $maildomain = us.g4s.com ; my $mailfrom = [EMAIL PROTECTED]; my $mailto = [EMAIL PROTECTED]; my $timeout = 30; my $mailsubject = ''; # Leave blank my $mailbody = ''; # Leave blank my $logfile = '/var/log/mail.log; # Put somewhere better my $debug = 1; # To enable SMTP session debugging to logfile Here is the commands.cfg: define command{ command_name service-notify-by-email command_line $USER1$/send_mail.pl -n "SERVICE $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$" -h "$HOSTNAME$" -s "$SERVICESTATE$" -a "$HOSTADDRESS$" -i "$SERVICEDESC$ - $SERVICEOUTPUT$ - $SERVICECHECKCOMMAND$" -d "$LONGDATETIME$" -e "$CONTACTEMAIL$" } and the contacts.cfg: define contact{ contact_name nagiosadmin ; Short name of user use generic-contact ; Inherit default values from generic-contact template (defined above) alias nagiosadmin ; Full name of user host_notification_commands host-notify-by-email service_notification_commands service-notify-by-email email [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; <<***** CHANGE THIS TO YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS ****** define contactgroup{ contactgroup_name admins alias Nagios Administrators members nagiosadmin } service template in templates.cfg define service{ name generic-service ; The 'name' of this service template active_checks_enabled 1 ; Active service checks are enabled passive_checks_enabled 1 ; Passive service checks are enabled/accepted parallelize_check 1 ; Active service checks should be parallelized (disabling this can lead to major performance problems) obsess_over_service 1 ; We should obsess over this service (if necessary) check_freshness 0 ; Default is to NOT check service 'freshness' notifications_enabled 1 ; Service notifications are enabled event_handler_enabled 1 ; Service event handler is enabled flap_detection_enabled 1 ; Flap detection is enabled failure_prediction_enabled 1 ; Failure prediction is enabled process_perf_data 1 ; Process performance data retain_status_information 1 ; Retain status information across program restarts retain_nonstatus_information 1 ; Retain non-status information across program restarts is_volatile 0 ; The service is not volatile check_period 24x7 ; The service can be checked at any time of the day max_check_attempts 5 ; Re-check the service up to 5 times in order to determine its final (hard) state normal_check_interval 1 ; Check the service every 1 minutes under normal conditions retry_check_interval 1 ; Re-check the service every one minute until a hard state can be determined contact_groups admins ; Notifications get sent out to everyone in the 'admins' group notification_options w,u,c,r ; Send notifications about warning, unknown, critical, and recovery events notification_interval 5 ; Re-notify about service problems every 5 minutes notification_period 24x7 ; Notifications can be sent out at any time register 0 ; DONT REGISTER THIS DEFINITION - ITS NOT A REAL SERVICE, JUST A TEMPLATE! } These are all the variables I can think of unless for some reason send_mail.pl cannot execute the perl binary or there is another file or binary missing from this equation that I can't think of.
