Nagios Core 4.0.2 Email notification

Post by Tiorl »

Hello,

I just setup nagios core 4.0.2 (CentOs 6.5) + check_mk, and I don't receive any email messages about alerts. In nagios.log I found following entry

Code: Select all

EXTERNAL COMMAND: SEND_CUSTOM_HOST_NOTIFICATION;DC-NAGIOS2;0;Nagios Admin;125689

Any suggestions?

You should be checking the mail log as well, try to cause an alert to be sent out, or send a custom notification from one of your objects that should be alerting via a contact, then show the output of the following:

Code: Select all

tail -25 /var/log/maillog

My concern is that this may be due to check_mk as it addon is performing the notification: /usr/bin/check_mk --notify
Too bad we cannot get more verbose with that last line:

HeyI have the same problems like you.

[1392202959] wproc: stderr line 01: execvp(NOTIFY_CONTACTNAME=PavlovP, ...) failed. errno is 2: No such file or directory

Have you fix this problem???

I discovered this one independently.

I've logged the bug here: http://tracker.nagios.org/view.php?id=582 and attached a patch "582-command-v2.patch" which fixes it for me to that bug report.

Cheers,

Phil
