Jason,
To avoid lots of replies, work step by step and try to document symptoms
in detail..
1. Do the command work manually as root ?
Yes
2. Do a su - nagios and try the command again. If it doesn't work. What
is the error message ?
Yes with following.
[nagios at SNMPServer etc]$ /usr/bin/printf "%b" "Service:
$SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState:
$SERVICESTATE$\nInfo: $OUTPUT$\nDate: $DATETIME$" | /usr/local/bin/gnokii

Send succeeded!
3. Do you have read and write permissions on the serial port specified in
the gnokiirc file as the nagios user ?
Yes
4. correct is necessary.
5. Is there a getty process on it ? Disable it in /etc/inittab and do
"init q", check if process is not respawned anymore.
No
6. Check access rights again from serial device.
Works from command line, just not from within nagios.
Extract from syslog
May 19 15:53:48 SNMPServer nagios: HOST ALERT: sw6-1;UP;HARD;1;PING OK -
Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 34.49 ms
May 19 15:53:48 SNMPServer nagios: HOST NOTIFICATION: network;sw6-1;UP;
host-notify-by-sms;PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 34.49 ms
7. Try to set the suid flag as root, just to see if this fix the problem.
No effect.
snippet from the misccommands.cfg file showing sms trigger
# 'host-notify-by-email' command definition
define command{
command_name host-notify-by-email

Hiya,
Yeah sorry.. Should have explained in full.
I have a host-notify-by-sms and notify-by-sms in the .cfg. One for
service and one for host. The snippet I sent was for a host down.
Really puzzling as the other commands in the .cfg for
host-notify-by-email and notify-by-email work fine. All I did was
replace them.

Jason,
I suppose that the manual test is ok ? Of course replace the macros with
the corresponding values.
/usr/bin/printf "%b" "**Nagios**\nType: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost:
$HOSTNAME$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo:
$OUTPUT$\nDate/Time: $DATETIME$\n" | /usr/local/bin/gnokii --sendsms
$CONTACTPAGER$
In the checkcommands you have a "notify-by-sms", but in the syslog there
is "host-notify-by-sms", so you need to check the syntax of that config
entry and try manually to execute the command to see if it works.
kind regards,
ludo

Thanks for your reply,
I do have a nokia connected to the serial port, but I am using the phone
to send the texts.
Regarding the macro, I have also tried just using the mobile number for
a test. This still does not work. Here is a syslog message when a host
does down.
May 19 11:11:48 SNMPServer nagios: HOST NOTIFICATION:
server;fiplog01;UP;host-notify-by-sms;PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA =
58.53 ms
As you can see the trigger is being used, just nothing more happening.

Hi Jason,
I use also gnokii to send sms's. I don't know your set-up, do you have
a Nokia connected to a serial port ?
Imy configuration i have a modem connected to the serial port and i
establish a call to a local provider smc center. So i am able to drop
more then 1 sms at the time in one connection. Only the call to the smc
center is charged. No charge for the sms's itself.
So i can not really simulate, but it seems for me that the
$CONTACTPAGERS$ macro is wrong, it must be $CONTACTPAGER$.
kind regards,
ludo

Hi All,
I have just setup a mobile gateway on our nagios box (6310i with serial
lead ;-). Got all the SMS stuff working using gnokii which works a
treat. Recommend it to anyone. However, when I try and get nagios to
use a new notify routine it fails to send the text.
Debug so far.
Got gnokii to send SMS direct.
Added notify-by-sms to misccommands.cfg.
I know the above works as I then cut the command from the .cfg
and run it from the command line direct and it works.
Could this be a permissions thing associated with the nagios user???
When I force a host down and look in the syslog the notification does
try and send via the correct command, it seems like just the command
from within nagios is not working.
Hope someone can help.
Regards
Jason
This is the command line.
/usr/bin/printf "%b" "**Nagios**\nType: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost:
$HOSTNAME$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo:
$OUTPUT$\nDate/Time: $DATETIME$\n" | /usr/local/bin/gnokii --sendsms
$CONTACTPAGERS$
