Sorry for confusion - I was just trying different combinations.

But initially my command definition was following:

define command{
        command_name    dlg_notifications
        command_line    /usr/local/nagios/libexec/nagios-msg-broker.sh
        }

I have "#!/bin/bash" in the top of my shell script, and shell script is set to be executable.

perfserver-10:/usr/local/nagios/libexec$ ls -l nagios-msg-broker.sh
-rwxrwxrwx 1 nagios nagcmd 149 Mar 30 10:04 nagios-msg-broker.sh

Thanks.
Mikhail.

I'm slightly confused - Do you have "#!/bin/bash" in the top of your shell script, and is it set to be executable by (at least) the nagios user?  (Not sure why you are calling bash then the script name as an arg, that is odd to me, but maybe I'm missing something)?

Cheers,
Jamie

Hello,

I have the following command:

define command{
        command_name    dlg_notifications
        command_line    /bin/bash /usr/local/nagios/libexec/nagios-msg-broker.sh
        }

And the following service

define service{
       use                             mypc
       service_description                                 dlg_Alerts_notifications
       check_command                                      dlg_notifications
       max_check_attempts                             1
       retain_status_information                    0
       retain_nonstatus_information            0
       }

/bin/bash /usr/local/nagios/libexec/nagios-msg-broker.sh
runs fine manually.

Service defined above can’t run it though.
While googling around, I found out that apparently Nagios does not know that script should be executed by /bin/bash

How would I let Nagios know about /bin/bash

Thanks.
Mikhail.
