no details in alert emails.

[Bill Akins]

I had the same problem.  The variables have changed in 2.x.
 
Try  $SHORTDATETIME$ and $SERVICEOUTPUT$ in the misccommands.cfg file
 
Mine look like this:
# '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: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress:
$HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Tim
e: $SHORTDATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$" | /bin/mail
-s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert -
$HOSTNAME$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
        }
 
HTH!

Since upgrading to the new new 2.0b2 release, nagios has began sending
out pages in the following format:

####################
***** Nagios  *****

Notification Type: PROBLEM

Service: SMTP
Host:  mailhost
Address: 192.168.1.100
State: CRITICAL

Date/Time: $

Additional Info:

$
###################

For some reason the Date/Time and the Additional Info fields are now
showing up as a $ instead of the values they should be.

Any thoughts?
