LONGDATETIME return $

[Sylvain Viollat]

Hello,

on a fresh install of Nagios 2.6 on Debian Etch, I got a strange problem that I never see before. When I receive mail notifications for an alert, the Date/Time in the Email body return $. Here is an example :

***** Nagios  *****

Notification Type: PROBLEM

Service: Test Nagios
Host: firewall
Address: 192.168.1.1
State: CRITICAL

Date/Time: $

Additional Info:

Connection refused

But when I receive an email for a "host down" notification, the Date/Time appear !? Here is what I got in commands.cfg :

# 'host-notify-by-email' command definition
define command{
        command_name    host-notify-by-email
        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$ for $HOSTDURATION$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo:\n\n$HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nACK by: $HOSTACKAUTHOR$\nComment: $HOSTACKCOMMENT$\n" | /usr/bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert $NOTIFICATIONNUMBER$ - $HOSTALIAS$ host is $HOSTSTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
        }

# 'notify-by-email' command definition
define command{
        command_name    notify-by-email
        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios  *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$ for $SERVICEDURATION$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\n\nInfo:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nACK by: $SERVICEACKAUTHOR$\nComment: $SERVICEACKCOMMENT$\n" | /usr/bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert $NOTIFICATIONNUMBER$ - $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
        }


Thanks for your help!

PS/ Sorry for my english :-)
