Don't you mean $CONTACTPAGER$? $CONTACTPAGER} is incorrect. You don't specifically say you did it but you should also verify that the script is executable as the nagios user if you haven't already.

	Hi, 

	I've just installed Nagios, which looks great. 

	We have our own SMS gateway, which is accessed via an HTTP post. I have 
	a Perl script that is intended to send the notification messages. 

	When I run the script from the command line, it works fine. 

	I have put a command into /etc/nagios/misccommands.cfg like so: 
	define command{ 
	    command_name   notify-by-sms 
	    command_line      /home/web/bin/sendSMS.pl $CONTACTPAGER} "This is 
	the message" 
	    } 
	Then, if I refer to notify-by-sms, notify-by-email, only the email goes. 
	The script logs to a file, so I know it isn't being called (I've tried 
	logging in as the nagios user and running the script, and it works). 

	Any ideas what I need to do to get these notifications working? With 
	this, I'm pretty much there with my Nagios installation, and I'll be 
	able to scrap a ream of perl based monitoring scripts. 

	Thanks in advance,
