RV: check_snmp : External command error with no output (return code: 3) [SOLVED]

[Ricardo Melendez]

Thanks, that was the problem.

 

I compile the plugins with "--with-snmpget-command=/usr/local/bin"  instead
of "with-snmpget-command=/usr/local/bin/snmpget"

 

Now, check_snmp and check_hpjd work.

The switch '--with-snmpget-command' needs the full path to the binary, not
just the directory name.. So try compiling the plugins with:

 

--with-snmpget-command=/usr/local/bin/snmpget

 

This will populate the PATH_TO_SNMPGET in the Makefile, which will then
compile it into 'check_snmp'.
