Jabber Custom Notification Script Not Working (Frederik Vanhee)

[Norman Harebottle]

Ok, so I could have found that too if I had looked!  Thanks for the
point in the proper direction.

I will see if I can make any sense of the log information to help with
my Jabber problem.

Thanks so much!

Norman

embedded Perl Nagios like mod_perl is more sensitive to coding issues
than the 'fork a new Perl interpreter for each run' model.

There is every chance that a plugin that works fine from the command
line won't work under ePN.

You can turn ePN logging on by changing the DEBUG_LEVEL in p1.pl. Set it
to LEAVE_MSG (or whatever is mentioned in perldoc p1.pl). You need to
make sure the log path and name suits you also.

In a former job, I found jabber/XMPP was very sensitive to the Perl
modules and configuration of the Jabber server. I think we had an event
handler that would publish stuff to jabber consoles with not much more
than one of the example usages from the Perl jabber client. Unfortch my
records are elsewhere.

No experience unfortch with the jabber plugins.

Yours sincerely.
