FW: Not sending e-mails

[Scott Miller]

I actually go it to work using your suggestion - I double checked it, and
misspelled one word - fixed it, lowered the threshold to alarm, and
restarted - got a notification within about 5 min.

 

# NEW 'notify-host-by-email' command definition

define command{

        command_name    notify-host-by-email

        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "Subject:** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$
Host Alert: $HOSTNAME$ is $HOSTSTATE$ **\n***** Nagios *****\n\nNotification
Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress:
$HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo: $HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n" |
/usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix $CONTACTEMAIL$

        }

 

# NEW 'notify-service-by-email' command definition

define command{

        command_name    notify-service-by-email

        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "Subject:** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$
Service Alert: $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **\n***** Nagios
*****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService:
$SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState:
$SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional
Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$" | /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix $CONTACTEMAIL$

 

Awesome - thanks!

Did you try the two notification mail commands I sent over?  Postfix uses
different syntax than what comes in the default Nagios config, and the ones
I'm using are from a functional Ubuntu/Postfix setup.  It uses Postfix's
alias to sendmail instead of the mail command, which doesn't work with
Postfix.

I agree - I've found a few other oddities while messing around with Postfix.
Gotta fix those first.

 

Thanks,

Scott
