eventhandler issue

[abid dar]

So I setup eventhandler for one of my servers similar
to the write up on the nagios site. 

I see the eventhandler is triggered in nagios.log. 

"[1133367310] SERVICE EVENT HANDLER:
ice.asdf.com;HTTP;CRITICAL;HARD;3;restart-httpd" 

however, the restart-httpd is not triggered. 

so then I ran the script via the command line: 
./restart-httpd CRITICAL SOFT 3 

the script works. 

my check_commands.cfg: 
define command{ 
command_name restart-httpd 
command_line
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/eventhandlers/restart-httpd
$SERVICESTATE$ $STATETYPE$ $SERVICEATTEMPT$ 
} 

my services.cfg 
define service{ 
use generic-service 
host_name ice.asdf.com 
service_description HTTP 
is_volatile 0 
check_period 24x7 
max_check_attempts 3 
normal_check_interval 5 
retry_check_interval 1 
contact_groups on-call 
notification_interval 1 
notification_period 24x7 
notification_options c,r 
check_command check_http!80 
event_handler restart-httpd 
} 


can anyone offer an explanation on why it looks like
the event trigger is being triggered but the
$SERVICESTATE$ $STATETYPE$ $SERVICEATTEMPT$ is not
being sent to the script.. 

what else should I be looking at..? 

thanks in advance.
