LinuxQuestions.org - Nagios: Server Notifications

Hi all,

I can not for the life of me get Service notifications working on a working Nagios box.

In point form:

Emails send fine from the command line using the command line for services in the commands.cfg file.
The box has always and continues to email notify about Hosts going up and down, as expected.
I have created 1 config file with a host and 1 service, [see below] nothing in inherited, so only 1 point of failure. This does not notify.

I can not see any reason why Service Notification should not be working....

Code:





define service{

        active_checks_enabled          1      ; Active service checks are enabled

        passive_checks_enabled          1      ; Passive service checks are enabled/accepted

        parallelize_check              1      ; Active service checks should be parallelized (disabling this can lead to major performance problems)

        obsess_over_service            1      ; We should obsess over this service (if necessary)

        check_freshness                0      ; Default is to NOT check service 'freshness'

        notifications_enabled          1      ; Service notifications are enabled

        event_handler_enabled          1      ; Service event handler is enabled

        flap_detection_enabled          1      ; Flap detection is enabled

        failure_prediction_enabled      1      ; Failure prediction is enabled

        process_perf_data              1      ; Process performance data

        retain_status_information      1      ; Retain status information across program restarts

        retain_nonstatus_information    1      ; Retain non-status information across program restarts

                notification_interval          5              ; Only send notifications on status change by default.
