Problems with an alert script

[rcarlos007]

Hi there !

I have made all the steps to configure zabbix to execute an alert script (message.sh) when a "trigger" has been "triggered", but the script doesn't work.

message.sh ( located at /usr/lib/zabbix/alertscripts/ )

#!/bin/bash
to=$1
subject=$2
body=$3
echo $to >> data.txt
echo $subject >> data.txt
echo $body >> data.txt
echo "hello world" >> data.txt

And when i see in the log action section, the message is marked as sent, or executed. But, when a type: cat data.txt the file is empty.

What i'am doing wrong?

Could be access rights to the file for the zabbix process.

check owner and group access.

And for testing purposes setting chmod 7777 on the file. if that solves the issue you know it is the access that is causing your problem.
