Re: externnotify script not running

Can I suggest you eliminate a few obvious factors...

Like 1. try a bash script first instead of perl, 2. Have the bash script just issue a "logger' command

If that works go back to perl which does the same.  If that works, change you perl script to dump all vars to a file..etc.

Also, check your script for nonprintable characters.  Does the script run from the command line?  (if you feed it vars)

No, this machine doesn't have selinus installed/configured/enforced.

Is there a debug setting I could use to debug this?  I didn't see anything in the logs.

Perhaps there is a working configuration that someone would share?

Thanks again,

Mike.
