The problem is that nagios doesn't fire a mail. I have done the following. I have created a shell script that it should be executed via a cron task and everytime it should send an email fired by the service. ------------------------------ #!/bin/sh # This is a sample shell script showing how you can submit the SEND_CUSTOM_SVC_NOTIFICATION command # to Nagios. Adjust variables to fit your environment as necessary. now=`date +%s` commandfile='/var/lib/nagios3/rw/nagios.cmd' /usr/bin/printf "[%lu] SEND_CUSTOM_SVC_NOTIFICATION;192.168.10.26;MAILPARSER_TEST;2;test;Testing if everything is OK\n" $now > $commandfile -------------------------------------- And I have defined the following service -------------------------------------- define service { service_description MAILPARSER_TEST check_command return-critical normal_check_interval 2 use generic-service notification_interval 0 } -------------------------------------- And never sends a mail as it normally does with all the other services I have. Any idea?
