hobbitd_alert command is not working ( maybe )

When I changed user (to root) I got the same as you:

# ./hobbitd_alert --test leopg9 msgs

Lars,

Mine is defined as the following.

MAILC="mail"                                   # Command used >> to send an
e-mail
 with no subject

MAIL="$MAILC -s"                                # Command >> used to send an
e-mail
 with a subject


If that was messed up, wouldnt it prevent my alerts not
working at all, >> because they work now. Its just I cant get them to work when >> I use the >> hobbitd_alert command.


thanx, michael

Hello,

My hobbit-alert.cfg file has the following line in it:

HOST=*
        MAIL user-2a9e3c790857@xymon.invalid

Hi

00003217 2006-10-23 11:59:07 *** Match with 'HOST=*' *** 00003217 >>>> 2006-10-23 11:59:07 Mail alert with command '/var/spool/mail/hobbit >>>> "Hobbit [12345] v43mgt:conn

CRITICAL (RED)"
user-2a9e3c790857@xymon.invalid'

The command to send the mail look very odd. What have you
as MAILC=??

in hobbitserver.cfg? Should be like # For the hobbitd_alert module

MAILC="mailx"                                   # Command >>>       >> used to send an

e-mail
 with no subject

MAIL="$MAILC -s"                                # Command >>>       >> used to send an

e-mail
 with a subject

Lars
