Hello everyone,

i'm currently trying to update my commands to match my script modification.

I added a "--port" option for my script, but I can't get it to work in command :

Code: Select all

$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c windows_flexlm -a --port $ARG1$

and this in return :

Code: Select all

The command (windows_flexlm) returned an invalid return code: 255

I think there is a mixup with "-a --port" but I can't find the documentation for this particular case.

earlier, I add this one :

Code: Select all

$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c windows_flexlm -a  $ARG1$

and it worked perfectly ...

any ideas ?

thank you

Try quoting?

$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c windows_flexlm -a "--port $ARG1$"
$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c windows_flexlm -a '--port $ARG1$'

I think check_nrpe wants a single value...
