How to pass variable to Email Script

[pramod.k29]

Hello ,

I am using Zabbix 1.8 server. I have an authenticated SMTP server. I want to configure a custom script for sending mails through this authenticated SMTP server.Zabbix is triggering my script but due to NULL values of $1,$2,$3 the script is not executing correctly . Following is my script.

************************************************** *********
#!/bin/sh

export [email protected]
export zabbixemailto=$1
export zabbixsubject=$2
export zabbixbody=$3
export smtpserver=smtp.1and1.com
export [email protected]
export smtppass=*****

/usr/bin/sendEmail -f $smtpemailfrom -t $zabbixemailto -u $zabbixsubject -m $zab
bixbody -s $smtpserver:25 -xu $smtplogin -xp $smtppass

************************************************** ******

We can see the script is executing and Zabbix shows success status in event page.

So the problem is the script is not getting the $1,$2,$3 variable .Can anybody help me how to pass variable to this bash script ??

-Thanks

Hello,

As far as I know, for Zabbix Server 1.8 you have to place custom scripts under /home/zabbix/bin
Make sure that your script is there.

Good luck!

Hai Davidus,

I have put the script under zabbix/bin directory.But still the scenario is same. Its clear that the values from Zabbix is not passing to the bash script. The only solution is to pass the values $1,$2and $3. I dont know how this values are passed to the script.

Thanks

Hi
You said, that script is executed, so you had successful configured custom action script.

I don't have 1.8 ver. but in 2.0 is the same but different frontend.

When you configure Action, and add Steps, "Run remote commands on current host" then in script line you have to put MACROS.

Look on screen, this is for version 2.0.2 .

Ps.
Or, if you setup Administration->Media types this is WRONG DIRECTION because you will only have predefined variables .

Bests,
Grzegorz

Or
If you use: "CONFIGURATION OF MEDIA TYPES"

Put the script in correct place for Zabbix 1.8 ver. and it is enough to use such variable reference.

#!/bin/bash
#
# sendsms
#
echo "`date` Odbiorca: $1 Tresc: $3" >> /var/log/zabbix/sms.log
/usr/local/bin/send_sms "$1" "$3" >>/var/log/zabbix/sms.log 2>&1

Hello All,

I have changed my OS to Centos and zabbix version to 2.x. Now the script is working fine and I started receiving email alerts.

Thanks for you support
