Hello,

I’m setting up check_mk in a fresh install.

All seems to be working except for the notification.

When nagios send a notification I can see the following in the nagios.log:

The /usr/bin/check_mk exists, and the notification script located under /usr/share/check_mk/notifications/ work if launched manually.

I’ve debugged my script and I saw that nagios is not launching the notification script.

I’ve tried to insert notification_logging = 2 in the main.mk file but no notify.log was created.

There is a way to debug this situation?

Thanks

Hi Lorenzo,

This is a known bug in Nagios 4.x.

http://tracker.nagios.org/view.php?id=582

My patch (582-command-v3.patch) attached to that bug is a quick and simple workaround.

The nagios devs have taken a different approach which also works, and will be merged into the master nagios 4 tree ‘soon’.

Cheers,

Phil

The /usr/bin/check_mk exists, and the notification script located under /usr/share/check_mk/notifications/ work if launched manually.

I’ve debugged my script and I saw that nagios is not launching the notification script.

I’ve tried to insert notification_logging = 2 in the main.mk file but no notify.log was created.

There is a way to debug this situation?

Thanks

Oggetto: RE: flexible notification not working

Hi Lorenzo,

This is a known bug in Nagios 4.x.

http://tracker.nagios.org/view.php?id=582

My patch (582-command-v3.patch) attached to that bug is a quick and simple workaround.

The nagios devs have taken a different approach which also works, and will be merged into the master nagios 4 tree ‘soon’.

Cheers,

Phil

Subject: [Check_mk (english)] flexible notification not working

Hello,

I’m setting up check_mk in a fresh install.

All seems to be working except for the notification.

When nagios send a notification I can see the following in the nagios.log:
