(No output!) Nagios 2.5

[Michael Frank]

Thank you Andy,

The problem happens with embedded Perl and without. I have also had it
happen with a check written in C++ now. I have tried recompiling and
installing Nagios with and without embedded Perl and I still get the
same problem. I am thinking of installing Nagios 2.4 and seeing if I
still have the problem. 

Right now I am only having the problem with two checks. One person
suggested to me to make sure that the script is outputting on standard
out and not error and I will be investigating that today. 

-Michael

This may be off target but,

if you are using embedded Perl (nagios -v or -m or perhaps you are
using a Dag Wieers RPM) the plugin may not be playing well with
embedded Perl.

If it is embedded Perl, you can either report a bug in the plugin to
the Nag plugins list or stop using embedded Perl.

The quick way to work around the problem if it is ePN is to write a
wrapper shell script like so

#!/bin/sh

exec <problem_plugin> $@

# You will need to rename the plugin and worry about whether you want $@
or $*.

HTH.
