Problems with Notification

Hi Mark,
On my log checks, I needed to set max_check_attempts to 1. This is because on the first pass, it would see the error. Unless the error occurs again in passes 2-<your max_check_attempts>, you won't get notified. I also set it to not notify me on a "recovery", since I merely need to know if the string has occurred within my logfile.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Problems with Notification
Howdy,
I'm missing something here I'm sure.
Nag is working well, but I can't seem to force an email from a logcheck. It comes up with a warning (manually triggering the logcheck by inserting lines), but its not emailing ..
# CHECK LOCAL, TEST LOG
define service{
use generic-service
host_name ADL0805
service_description LOCAL TEST LOG WARN
is_volatile 0
check_period 24x7
max_check_attempts 4
normal_check_interval 3
retry_check_interval 1
contact_groups sysadmins, trumps-admins
notification_interval 960
notification_period 24x7
check_command check_nrpe!check_testlog
}
I can get emails to trigger on *some* other checks (and state restores), but all checks pretty much use the same default settings (at the moment) so I'm pretty lost.
Any ideas to point me in the right direction?
Mark
