FW: SMS issue Nagios 3.0

[Henrik Schou]

When I try as the nagios user I get the following error:

sendsms xxxxxxxxxx test
mktemp: cannot create temp file /var/spool/sms/outgoing/send_L23225:
Permission denied
/usr/local/bin/sendsms: line 25: $FILE: ambiguous redirect
/usr/local/bin/sendsms: line 26: $FILE: ambiguous redirect
/usr/local/bin/sendsms: line 27: $FILE: ambiguous redirect
[nagios at nagios bin]$

Which user is the right owner for sendsms?

/Henrik

Have you tested it by becoming the nagios user and using the exact
commandline from your definition?

Tests run as root or another user are not relevant. You need to know
what happens as the nagios user.

So `su - nagios` and test again.
