[Nagios-users] FW: SMS issue Nagios 3.0

2008-04-22 Thread Henrik Schou
When I try as the nagios user I get the following error:

sendsms xx test
mktemp: cannot create temp file /var/spool/sms/outgoing/send_L23225:
Permission denied
/usr/local/bin/sendsms: line 25: $FILE: ambiguous redirect
/usr/local/bin/sendsms: line 26: $FILE: ambiguous redirect
/usr/local/bin/sendsms: line 27: $FILE: ambiguous redirect
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]$

Which user is the right owner for sendsms?

/Henrik

Have you tested it by becoming the nagios user and using the exact
commandline from your definition?

Tests run as root or another user are not relevant. You need to know
what happens as the nagios user.

So `su - nagios` and test again.

 Which user is the right owner for sendsms?
Have a short look at /var/spool/sms, which user owns the directories? Simply 
add the nagios user to the group which owns these directories. (Don't know 
which Distribution you're using, so it could be differ from distribution to 
distribution)
