Hi Ethan,
Today I checked again the epn-behavier on RHEL4,
and saw, that the behavier didn't change too much.
Last time I reported, I had the feeling that the
first 4 or 8 Byte of the Plugin-Output are simply
overwritten, but I didn't mention. Actually there is
some new output, since You are writing the plugin-results
into a temp. file before processing it inside nagios.
Even in this files you can see: the pointers seems to be ok,
the bytes are there but overwritten!
Again some examples:
the following ist from epn-leave-msgs.log, everything looks fine, especially
the content of $plugin_output, written by line 296 of p1.pl:
print LH qq($ts run_package: "$filename $plugin_args" returning ($res, "$plugin_output").\n)
Sat Apr 14 10:30:17 2007 eval_file: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/WL/check_snmp_cisco_ifstatus already successfully compiled and file has not changed; skipping compilation.
Sat Apr 14 10:30:17 2007 run_package: "/usr/local/nagios/libexec/WL/check_snmp_cisco_ifstatus -H 10.33.255.40 -C readcommunity -i FastEthernet0/16 -w 30000000 -c 40000000 -b wlswi6d -s IF_16" returning (0, "IFStatus is OK - INTERFACE DOWN: - FastEthernet0/16 (ethernet) - In: 0 Mbps, Out: 0 Mbps, Limit: 10 Mbps|in=0;0;30000000;40000000;10000000 out=0;0;30000000;40000000;10000000 errors=0").
from service-perfdata file (written by perfdataprocessing inside nagios)
You can see, that exactly the first 8 Byte of the plugin output seems
to be overwritten
