vfs.file.contents item not working

[kalapka]

Hello,
I'm trying to setup an item which reads content of a file. But getting an error: "Cannot obtain file file.txt" information: stat file.txt: permission denied. I believe that permissions are ok, even if I run command under zabbix user (under which agent is installed) 'zabbix_agent2 -t vfs.file.contents["file.txt"]' i got a correct response, so not sure where the problem is.
Could anyone advise?

Did you run the zabbix_agent2 command with the -t option as root user? Check the permissions of the file and the permissions of each directory leading up to that file.

Did you run the zabbix_agent2 command with the -t option as root user?

I think its user zabbix they use...

even if I run command under zabbix user (under which agent is installed) 'zabbix_agent2 -t vfs.file.contents["file.txt"]' i got a correct response

Just in case... any selinux messages on that node? I think I have had a case, when logged in user managed to get file contents but zabbix did not (even when all the dirs etc where with very open permissions) and we needed some selinux updates..
