Error message :

bash: ./cacti_monitor.sh: /bin/bash^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

I have mail and mailx, path to bash is OK, what can be wrong ?

Thanks for reply

Hi

can you try this :

Code:

$ dos2unix cacti_monitor.sh

I tried that and got this message :

dos2unix: converting file casti_monitor.sh to UNIX format ...
dos2unix: problems converting file casti_monitor.sh

Sorry about that... :oops:

Thanks

I have problem with this script. Today I got bunch of emails at the same time, beginning of email is same, but section with issue is different:

Code:

The following issues are present on the Cacti Server:

 ERROR: Cacti poller goes not seem to be running
        Recommended action: Investigate why the poller is not running properly

 ERROR: Cacti poller goes not seem to be running
        Recommended action: Investigate why the poller is not running properly

In one email are this ERROR s three, in one email is ERROR missing.

Does / can it email you when certain things happen, like host / http / mysql /etc down, or HDD filling up, etc?

Something is bad, I do have postfix and sendmail on the server, when trying to run the script i get this:

Code:

:/home/scripts# ./cacti_monitor.sh
postdrop: warning: unable to look up public/pickup: No such file or directory
srvr:/home/scripts# whoami
root

Do I need to make some changes and pickup mail server directly?

Edit: error above seems to be fixed with:

Code:

mkfifo /var/spool/postfix/public/pickup

but still no emails received when 5 percent is choosen.

Code:

### Enable disk monitoring ###
CHECK_DISK="YES";
# Percent of volume usage to alert on, whole integer number
TOLERANCE_PERCENT="5";

My disk has 80 percent used of course.

Edit: I am idiot, script was ok, but external SMTP was required. One more hint, on some servers consider changing httpd to apache inside script.
