I have downloaded a plugin and copied it into /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_squid.pl The script is available from here: <A HREF="http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Websites%2C-Forms-and-Transactions/Squid-Web-Proxy/details">http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Websites%2C-Forms-and-Transactions/Squid-Web-Proxy/details</A> Or from tinyURL: <A HREF="http://tinyurl.com/yzt8g2o">http://tinyurl.com/yzt8g2o</A> I have created a service: define service{ use remote-service ; Name of service template to use host_name fredprox service_description SQUID check_command check_squid notifications_enabled 0 } I have created a command: # 'check_squid' command definition define command{ command_name check_squid command_line $USER1$/check_squid.pl -u <A HREF="http://www.google.com">http://www.google.com</A> -p fredprox -l 8080 -e200 } If I run the script from the command line I have: # ./check_squid.pl -u <A HREF="http://www.google.com">http://www.google.com</A> -p fredprox -l 8080 -e200 OK - Status: 200 OK However, using it from within Nagios causes the error:[1260361223] EXTERNAL COMMAND: ENABLE_HOST_SVC_CHECKS;demeter [1260361245] EXTERNAL COMMAND: SCHEDULE_FORCED_SVC_CHECK;demeter;SQUID;1260361244 [1260361253] SERVICE ALERT: demeter;SQUID;CRITICAL;SOFT;1;(null) [1260361287] EXTERNAL COMMAND: ENABLE_SVC_NOTIFICATIONS;demeter;SQUID [1260361295] EXTERNAL COMMAND: ENABLE_SVC_NOTIFICATIONS;demeter;SQUID [1260361309] EXTERNAL COMMAND: ENABLE_SVC_NOTIFICATIONS;demeter;SSH [1260361313] SERVICE ALERT: demeter;SQUID;CRITICAL;SOFT;2;(null) [1260361373] SERVICE ALERT: demeter;SQUID;CRITICAL;SOFT;3;(null) [1260361433] SERVICE ALERT: demeter;SQUID;CRITICAL;HARD;4;(null) [1260361433] SERVICE NOTIFICATION: nagiosadmin;demeter;SQUID;CRITICAL;notify-service-by-email;(null) I have set debugging to 128, but nagios.debug is empty. I expect that I do not have a clear understanding (or any understanding) of the plugins, and find the documentation bewildering, to be frank :( Perhaps, it has something to do with the $USER1$ specification in the command, but I could not find any documentation about this and what it was used for. Does anyone have any advise, or even the answers?
