   Did you try running the script from user "nagios"?  It's often a
   permission problem.
   Also, you generally want to put the full path to commands in the
   script so the env is good:
   /bin/rm
   /bin/echo
   Etcetera...

Thanks for that. I have almost completed it except for following:

I have a custom shell that checks the existence of a file on linux and
sends the correct result. This is the piece of the code that I have
question:

 . . .

if test -e "/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/out.txt"
then
    echo "Jobs XXFAILED"
    rm -f /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/out.txt
    exit 2
else
    echo "Jobs XXSUCCEEDED"
    rm -f /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/out.txt
    exit 0
fi

The problem is when I run this file directly from linux, I get the echo
correctly and the files gets deleted. But when ran from Nagios, the echo
gets returned BUT IT DOES NOT DELETE THE FILE. Do u know why?

Presuming you already know how to perform your query from a script this
should be all you need --
