enable performance data doesn't work

[Amri Karim]

Hi,

I'm having this strange problem, I can't enable performance data
processing on a nagios machine (Debian).  I have enabled this before on
many machines.
Perhaps I'm overlooking something?  The problem is that nagios never
touches /var/log/nagios/service-perfdata.out

I don't think its a permission issue either because when I do a su -
nagios, I can create the file.

Any ideas? Here is my config:

miscommand.cfg
--------------
define command{
        command_name    process-service-perfdata
        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b"
"$LASTCHECK$\t$HOSTNAME$\t$SERVICEDESC$\t$SERVICESTATE$\t$SERVICEATTEMPT
$\t$STATETYPE$\t$EXECUTIONTIME$\t$LATENCY$\t$OUTPUT$\t$PERFDATA$" >>
/var/log/nagios/service-perfdata.out
        }

nagios.cfg
----------
process_performance_data=1
service_perfdata_command=process-service-perfdata


services.cfg
------------

        name                            generic-service
