For shell based event handlers I normally add these lines to the top
of the script:<br>
<br>
set -x<br>
exec >> /tmp/event.log 2>&1<br>
echo "================= Started `date` ================"<br>
set<br>
<br>
This way, everything the event handler does is written to the file
/tmp/event.log<br>
<br>

is about a generic event handler which could replace your event
handler just by passing it some parameters. The other advantage of
the generic event handler is that is has good logging and debug
features.<br>

is about plugins that don't work in Nagios but work on the command
line. Most of the pointers here also apply to event handlers.<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
I`m using a nagios 3.0.3 on a CentOS 5.8 and I´m a little stuck with a eventhandeler problem- I can`t see it running and I can´t find a problem in the logfiles. Here a short overview:
