Nagios Support Forum

I am following the document " Integrating_SNMP_Traps_With_XI.pdf", I get to the point in the document where it says "4. Execute the script:
# ./NagiosXI-SNMPTrap.sh"
I execute the script and when it tries to start SNMPTT I get error about cant locate SNMP.pm ( see below)
------------------------
Starting snmptt: Can't locate SNMP.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 .) at (eval 6) line 1.

Could not load the Perl module SNMP! If net_snmp_perl_enable is
enabled then the SNMP module is required. Please see snmptt.html
for system requirements. Note: SNMPTT uses the Net-SNMP package's
SNMP module, NOT the CPAN Net::SNMP module!

died at /usr/local/sbin/snmptt line 425.

Any idea what I missed....???? Thanks

Is this a 64bit install? Look at the yum parts of the output, you are missing the package mentioned... net-snmp.

No, sorry. Thought I put that in the first post.
This is a nagios Xi Virtual machine downloaded from the nagios site. So it is cent OS 32 bit. straight install this is the first think I have tried to add tot eh OS since the download. I Used the document " Integrating_SNMP_Traps_With_XI.pdf" and it did not say there were any dependancies before running the script...

The script depends on yum, yum is used to fulfill all the dependences of the whole configuration. Thus the script has a line that looks like this "yum -y install net-snmp" What is the output?

[root@hv-nagios ~]# yum -y install net-snmp

Setting up Install Process
Package 1:net-snmp-5.3.2.2-9.el5.i386 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

DID a find command and SNMP.pm is located here = /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/Net/SNMP.pm

That's what the error warns against, SNMP != Net::SNMP. So you are looking to install the package that contains " /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/SNMP.pm".
Something in the repositories must have changed to cause this... Happens too often and I don't use CentOS/RHEL enough to keep track any better then you.

Yep that is what i was thinking. the net-snmp has been updated and the path has changed...
Looking thru the documents to see if there is something that sets the variable @INC, or how that path is set in the system, maybe i can add the new path to it.....
