notification emails

[Nick Price]

No  its still activated

 

I even copied the configs from the old server.

 

It seems it's just fedora 16 that has the problem. 

 

This version of Nagios works fine with fedora 16.

 

I looked on tactical view

 

Everything is enabled except SSH localhost

Did you by accident disable the notifications?

On the Nagios web interface, click on Tactical Overview.
At the end of the page (Monitoring Features) check that Notifications are
green/enabled.

It would make sense as you don't have SELinux and all commands seem to work
from command-line (you also checked them with your Nagios user, not root,
right?).

Ok

 

I am getting in the debug log

 

Notification viability test failed. No  notification will be sent.

 

What is this and how to troubleshoot it.

 

I can send emails from command line.

Selinux is disabled

Yes  printf works

I had the same version of Nagios with the same config files working OK with
fedora 14

It is only when I installed it on fedora 16 the notifications don't work

I think it's a bug within Nagios

 

I doubt that its a bug in Nagios, as Nagios just uses your system's commands
to send notifications.
What is your notification config? can you run the commands the notification
uses as the Nagios user?
Is there some security such as SE Linux running?

You could try adding logging to the Notification command eg add a ">>
/var/tmp/Notification.log"

or instead of the Notification command being a direct command, make a script
for it instead.

Did you also do 

printf 'this is a test' | /bin/mail  -s  test_email  email at mydomain.com

?

The defaults are there.

 

 

I did        echo 'this is a test' | /bin/mail  -s  test_email
email at mydomain.com

 

 

That went out Ok

 

What to look at next

Did you check the command which is used to send notifications in command.cfg
or checkcommand.cfg ?
Maybe you don't have the binary or you need to rename the command.

By default it uses /usr/bin/printf and /usr/bin/mail if I'm not mistaken.

Hello

I am not sure if this is a bug or config issue.

I have a clean install of fedora 16 32 bit  with a manual install of nagios
3.3.1  and nagios plugins 1.4.15.

I see in the debug log

Notification viability test failed. No notification will be sent out.

I can send test emails from this server using sendmail and that bit works


Is there a solution for this.

Regards

Nick
