Nagios Emails not working -


i've tried figure out im failing or maybe im overlooking something. i've setup nagios server , clients. problem im having server not send email contact or contactgroup. instead see notifications in /var/log/syslog (ubuntu server).

postfix installed fine , have sent numerous tests using mail , mailx (read somewhere mailx preferred nagios3).

i should mention, same problem happening on icinga runs on same host.

any appreciated.

thanks,

patrick

you config file command.cfg should have similar this:

define command{   command_name    notify-host-by-email   command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** nagios *****\n\nnotification type: $notificationtype$\nhost: $hostname$\nstate: $hoststate$\naddress: $hostaddress$\ninfo: $hostoutput$\n\ndate/time: $longdatetime$\n" | /usr/bin/mail -s "** $notificationtype$ host alert: $hostname$ $hoststate$ **" $contactemail$ }  define command{  command_name    notify-service-by-email  command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** nagios *****\n\nnotification type: $notificationtype$\n\nservice: $servicedesc$\nhost: $hostalias$\naddress: $hostaddress$\nstate: $servicestate$\n\ndate/time: $longdatetime$\n\nadditional info:\n\n$serviceoutput$" | /usr/bin/mail -s "** $notificationtype$ service alert: $hostalias$/$servicedesc$ $servicestate$ **" $contactemail$ } 

and edit file contact.cfg looks this:

define contact{         contact_name                    nagiosadmin             ; short name of user         use                             generic-contact         ; inherit default          alias                           nagios admin            ; full name of user          email                           tandn@eposi.vn  ; <<***** change email         } 

afterwards, check nagios restart it:

sudo /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg sudo /etc/init.d/nagios restart
