Problem with notify-by-email

Hi,


When Nagios is trying to send me an e-mail I get the following error in the event log:


[03-14-2007 12:02:36] Warning: Attempting to execute the command "/usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios 2.7 *****\n\nNotification Type: PROBLEM\n\nService: Nagios\nHost: ****\nAddress: ***.***.***.***\nState: CRITICAL\n\nDate/Time: Wed Mar 14 12:02:36 CET 2007\n\nAdditional Info:\n\nNAGIOS CRITICAL: Could not locate a running Nagios process!" | -s "** PROBLEM alert - ****/Nagios is CRITICAL **" ****@****.com" resulted in a return code of 127. Make sure the script or binary you are trying to execute actually exists...



I use Nagios 2.7 with Debian and Exim4. Exim is working normal and sents a e-mail when I do the following test:
"printf text | mail -s "subject" e-mail address"

The "notify-by-email" command is present in the commands.cfg

I didn't find any help on google etc..
any idea?
