Re: [Nagios-users] Event Handler Question
May or may not be related... When testing new plugins and scripts, make sure you're testing them as the nagios user the scripts will be running as when integrated w/ Nagios. I documented what I did for a previous employer awhile back here: http://www.techadre.com/content/nagios-event-handler-restarting-service Perhaps something in there may be useful. -- Mat W.

Have you tried the debug option?

I have the event handler defined with 3 macros: $HOSTSTATE$ $HOSTSTATETYPE$ $HOSTADDRESS$ all passed to a wrapper shell script that takes each macro as $1, $2, and $3. In the wrapper script I added some echo statements as part of my troubleshooting to figure out why my script wasn't working. If I run the script manually and pass the arguments as I expect, the script runs fine. When Nagios executes it, as verified in the log, nothing is happening and it is because the first 2 arguments are not being passed to the script. Interestingly, the third one is passed to the script. So, what could be the issue with the command definition not passing the first 2 arguments? Thanks, Chris -- Got Input? Slashdot Needs You. Take our quick survey online.
