event handler script not executing

[Rick Garland]

Hi Mark:

I have included the entry from the nagios.log file
 > The entry in the nagios.log
 > [1268099555] SERVICE_EVENT_HANDLER: my_host;NFS
 > CHECK;CRITCAL;SOFT;3;remount-nfs!CRITCAL!SOFT!3

Within nagios the event handler is being launched. But the executable is not getting touched.
When viewing the Event Log from the GUI, it has that little graphic for the Event Handler as well.

But still, the bash script (perms 755 and owned by nagios) is not being touched.

           Check nagios event log or nagios.log 'physically' for starters, to check if the event handler is being launched.
