Event Handler Script not working.

[Figment]

Yeah, as far as I can see all files seem to be in their right location.

Code: Select all

[root@Nagios ~]# ls -l /usr/local/nagios/libexec/auto-acknowledge.sh
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 nagios nagios 693 Jan 28 14:42 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/auto-acknowledge.sh
[root@Nagios ~]# ls -d /usr/local/nagios/libexec/
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/
[root@Nagios ~]# ls -d /usr/local/nagios/
/usr/local/nagios/
[root@Nagios ~]# ls -d /usr/local/
/usr/local/

Thanks,

Sorry I missed the most important char in 3 of the commands

Code: Select all

ls -dl /usr/local/nagios/libexec/
ls -dl /usr/local/nagios/
ls -dl /usr/local/

[Figment]

no worries, here's the results of that command.

Code: Select all

[root@Nagios ~]# ls -dl /usr/local/nagios/libexec/
drwxrwxr-x. 2 nagios nagios 4096 Jan 28 14:42 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/

[root@Nagios ~]# ls -dl /usr/local/nagios/
drwxrwxr-x. 10 root root 4096 Jan  3 14:21 /usr/local/nagios/

[root@Nagios ~]# ls -dl /usr/local/
drwxr-xr-x. 16 root root 4096 Nov  1 15:57 /usr/local/

This all looks as expected, can you post the output of the following as I'm still not seeing what could be giving you a file not found

Code: Select all

cat /usr/local/nagios/libexec/auto-acknowledge.sh

[Figment]

Certainly,

Code: Select all

[root@SU-GBCP-VTDS150 ~]# cat /usr/local/nagios/libexec/auto-acknowledge.sh
#!/bin/sh
#
# Event handler script for acknowledging non critical hosts.
#
#

# What state is the Host  in?
case "$1" in
UP)
        ;;
UNREACHABLE)
        ;;
DOWN)
        case "$2" in

        SOFT)

                case "$3" in

                1)
                        now=`date +%s`
                        commandfile='/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd'
                        /bin/printf "[%lu] ACKNOWLEDGE_HOST_PROBLEM;$4;2;1;1;Autobot;Non-critical host, outage acknowledged\n" $now > $commandfile
                        ;;
                        esac
                ;;

        HARD)
                now=`date +%s`
                commandfile='/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd'
                /bin/printf "[%lu] ACKNOWLEDGE_HOST_PROBLEM;$4;2;0;1;Autobot;Non-critical host, outage acknowledged\n" $now > $commandfile
                ;;
        esac
        ;;
esac

It just hit me, you don't have quotes around the items in your command definition

lets change this

Code: Select all

define command{
        command_name    auto-acknowledge
        command_line    $USER1$/auto-acknowledge.sh $HOSTSTATE$ $HOSTSTATETYPE$ $HOSTATTEMPT$ $HOSTNAME$
}

to this

Code: Select all

define command{
        command_name    auto-acknowledge
        command_line    $USER1$/auto-acknowledge.sh '$HOSTSTATE$' '$HOSTSTATETYPE$' '$HOSTATTEMPT$' '$HOSTNAME$'
}

and then apply configuration

Hi Scott,

Apologies for the delayed response, I have been out of office for a few days. Even with the quotes i'm still getting a "No such file or directory" error.

Code: Select all

[1549385220] HOST EVENT HANDLER: TEST_PRINTER;DOWN;SOFT;3;auto-acknowledge
[1549385220] wproc: HOST EVENTHANDLER job 2518 from worker Core Worker 16314 is a non-check helper but exited with return code 2

This is so bizarre, the error is like the file /usr/local/nagios/libexec/auto-acknowledge.sh doesn't exist.

Out of curiosity, can you change the command to the following and restart nagios and see if you get the same error testing this

Code: Select all

define command{
        command_name    auto-acknowledge
        command_line    $USER1$/auto-acknowledge.sh
}

Yeah its not really making any sense to me either. I've tried with non of the variables passed as you suggested and still get the file not found error.

Is it worth trying to put the script in a different directory?

might as well try, I'm actually out of ideas....
