Hi all,

I use a script to notify service problems. The script run well with perl but
not with ePN. The error it sent to the /var/log/messages is:

nagios: **ePN failed to compile /usr/lib/nagios/eventhandlers/
notify-service-by-email.pl: "String found where operator expected at (eval
8) line 52, near "case "PROBLEM""" at /usr/bin/p1.pl line 159.

In the script I use the Switch.pm to assign a different text depending on
the notification type. The switch is like this:

switch ($optnotiftype) {
        case "PROBLEM"                            { $NOTIFTYPE='Problem' }
        case "RECOVERY"                          { $NOTIFTYPE='Recovery' }
        case "ACKNOWLEDGEMENT"          { $NOTIFTYPE='Notification
Acknowkedge' }
        case "DOWNTIMESTART"                { $NOTIFTYPE='Start of Planned
Stop' }
        case "DOWNTIMEEND"                    { $NOTIFTYPE='End of Planned
Stop' }
        case "DOWNTIMECANCELLED"        { $NOTIFTYPE='Planned Stop Canceled'
}
        else                                                  {
$NOTIFTYPE=$optnotiftype }
}

All the vars are defined and the script run OK with perl.

Can someone help me to fix this problem?

The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources
and provide services. The best practices for maximizing a physical server's
connectivity to a physical network are well understood - see how these
rules translate into the virtual world?
