Currency Example

[fnyahoo]

Good Day,

I have been trying to implement currency example from Zabbix Documentation on my Zabbix Server. https://www.zabbix.com/wiki/howto/mo...exchange_rates

keep in mind that the currency url has changed to http://themoneyconverter.com/rss-feed/USD/rss.xml

so i changed my script accordingly to: UserParameter=currency[*],curl --silent 'http://themoneyconverter.com/rss-feed/USD/rss.xml' | sed -r "s/<title>/\n<title>/g" | grep "$2/$1" | cut -f2 -d"=" | cut -f2 -d" "

and on the server side my item key parameter is currency[BAM,USD]

still no go any ideas???

error messages usually read received value [] is not suitable for value type numeric[float]

What do you get if you run the command from the userparameter on the commandline as the zabbix user?

ok I found where i was making the mistake. First of all, the url provided in that currency example is wrong, the site probably has changed their xml feed location, minor problem. The real deal was in parsing the lines in that xml feed. Once I have parsed the xml feed correctly, it worked fine.
