Follow the help:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/perl ./check_ups_pow.pl -H <hostname> -C <community>

Obviously, replace <hostname> and <community>. . .

Ok for using the pluging but do i always have to execute like this ... with "/usr/bin/perl" in front of it .... and if do, then i suppose i have to make the command in commands.cfg file like that with "/usr/bin/perl" in fron ... or is there a way to fix this in some other way ... ?

Also i have this problem now but i think i can handle it, i guess i have to dl mibs and fix this ...

Isn't it a problem related to perl script copied from Windows to Linux machine?

Code: Select all

^M

suggests badly converted end of line characters (\r\n instead \n) in script file. You can see them after openning the file in vi editor.

Yes, you should be able to open in it in vim and change the line endings.

Code: Select all

vim [filename]
:set ff=unix
:wq

Then try to execute it again without /bin/perl in front.

Here it is the result without "/usr/bin/perl"

root@nagios:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# vim check_ups_pow.pl
root@nagios:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# ./check_ups_pow.pl -h
-bash: ./check_ups_pow.pl: /usr/local/groundwork/bin/perl: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
root@nagios:/usr/local/nagios/libexec#

and here it is with "/usr/bin/perl "

root@nagios:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# /usr/bin/perl ./check_ups_pow.pl -H 192.168.100.200 -C mkptrlHQ

The plugin now works (in your second example), but the OID does not exist . . .
