Perhaps the nagios user is not permitted to write files in the working directory of your script?

Any ideas of how to solve the problem.i have given the full path for new.pl ,but it is not working. If I try to execute manually by changing the $HOSTADDRESS in shell script with the exact address,it create out file.otherwise not????????why??

The problem is the line './new.pl' Nagios is not executed from the libexec-directory, so you need the full path to the secondary script (and to the outfile). /FredrikW prabhu.anandh@wipro.com wrote: > Hi folks this is what I tried and I get the following error > (127 out of bounds plugin may be missing.)<---from status.log file > > This is the shell script that invokes perl script since I don't know > how to check strings in shell script. > > #!/bin/sh > RES1= `/bin/ping -c 2 -w 2 $HOSTADDRESS > out` <-----------------I am > sending only 2 packets. > RET=$? > echo $RES1 > ./new.pl > exit $RET > > Perl script reads as follows: > > #!/usr/bin/perl > open (FILE,"<out"); > while(<FILE>) > { > if ($_ =~ /0 received/) <-----------------if no packets are > received ,I will give it as critical or warning. > { > print ("CRITICAL - Plugin timed out after 10 seconds\n"); > } > if ($_=~ /2 received/) <-------------if both are received ,I > assume that host is up. > { > print ("PING -OK\n"); > } > } > #print "$_"; > close (FILE); > > > In hosts.cfg > I have given check_command as check_new <----name of the shell file. > > In checkcommands.cfg > Command_line /home/var/check_new $HOSTADDRESS > > > How do I make the following to take effect in the web interface.
