Hello Jesper,

Could you give us more detail about your alerts.cfg ?

Did you use scripts or variables in this file ? Maybe you made a syntaxe
error.

Thanks,

 Hello


We are running a Centos 5.11 final with Xymon 4.3.21.


The problem we have is that SMS and mail alerts are not getting forward
when generated.

We have investigated logs in the location: /var/log/xymon/


Alerts are been generate and registered in: notifications.log


Ex. : (server name and mail addresses has been changed in below example)


Mon Jun  1 09:08:04 2015 servername.domain.local.disk (10.2.64.95)
user-cbfa4c238ccd@xymon.invalid[262] 1433142484 100

Mon Jun  1 09:08:04 2015 servername.domain.local.disk (10.2.64.95)
user-cbfa4c238ccd@xymon.invalid[263] 1433142484 100

Mon Jun  1 09:19:19 2015 servername.domain.local.msgs (10.2.64.71)
user-cbfa4c238ccd@xymon.invalid[262] 1433143159 400


We can see in the log: /var/log/xymon/alerts.log an error we have not seen
before:


Bad address

Bad address

Bad address

Bad address

Bad address – anyone seen this before?


So we went through the /home/xymon/server/etc/hosts.cfg & alerts.cfg,
looking for any syntax error, bad mail addresses J and did also out
comment most of the lines in hosts.cfg file but still getting this error
and no mail alerts are send from the server?


I looked in the Xymon man pages for making a dump trace and debug with
./xymoncmd xymond_alerts but is not giving me any clues where this is going
wrong?


Postfix mail server,  sendmail and SMS service are working fin on the box.
Any input would be appreciated.


Thank in advance
