I am trying to get NagiosAcknowledge.pm working, but I am running into a few
issues. The http acknowledge url I am using in otrs is >
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi?cmd_typ=&cmd_mod=2&host=&service=&sticky_ack=on&send_notification=on&persistent=on&com_data=<TicketNumber>&btnSubmit=Commithttp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi?cmd_typ=%3cCMD_TYP%3e&cmd_mod=...
The only change I made was the IP address. When the script is called from
otrs, the following is logged in the var/log/httpd/access.log on the nagios
box >
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - nagiosadmin [24/Mar/2009:10:15:36 -0400] "GET
/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi?cmd_typ=%3CCMD_TYP%3E&cmd_mod=2&host=host_name%0D&service=PING%0D&sticky_ack=on&send_notification=on&persistent=on&com_data=%3CTicketNumber%3E&btnSubmit=Commit
HTTP/1.1" 200 1131 "-" "libwww-perl/5.816"
The issue is with the variables. The and are
both followed by a "%0D". The Ticket number is also not correct in this
example although it has worked in other tests. This is obviously confusing
nagios and causing the acknowledgement process to fail.
When I manually fill in the variables >
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi?cmd_typ=34&cmd_mod=2&host=host...
and paste it into a web browser, it works great. The following (correct
entry) is logged in the /var/log/httpd/access.log
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - nagiosadmin [24/Mar/2009:00:32:04 -0400] "GET
/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi?cmd_typ=34&cmd_mod=2&host=host_name&service=PING&sticky_ack=on&send_notification=on&persistent=on&com_data=2008032414208038&btnSubmit=Commit
HTTP/1.1" 200 1307 "-" "libwww-perl/5.816"
and the acknowledgment is successfully processed by nagios.
I had some customizations in my nagios emails and I was using postfix as
opposed to sendmail. I reverted back to the standard notification commands
as well as to using sendmail for sending without any change. I am running
Fedora Core 9 on both machines and I'm out of ideas?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you may be able to offer-
