Mysqladmin not found

[Scuer]

I install zabbix agent on FreeBSD 6.1. Run process as standalone, after system reboot zabbix agent warn about mysqladmin (mysqladmin not found). After some time manually restart zabbix agent all work ok. But every restart time zabbix can't find mysqladmin. Process run as user zabbix and group zabbix.

You are missing some important information:
Is mysqladmin to be found on the computer?
Do you need monitoring of a MySQL database on the computer?

Yes, mesqladmin found on this computer. And it's work fine.
Mysql monitoring work after i manually restart zabbix client.
If i restart zabbix after reboot immediacy, zabbix don't find mysqladmin, if i waiting some time (5 min) and after restart, all work fine.

I know this is two years old, but i saw the same behavior running freebsd 8.1 and zabbix agent 1.8.3.

symptom is that after a reboot, the zabbix agent will show errors in its logs for mysql userparameters like:

mysqladmin: not found
mysql: not found

Running zabbix_get on an item will result in:

$zabbix_get -s127.0.0.1 -kmysql.qps
ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED

After manually restarting the agent, the mysql userparams start working. I think this may be due to the zabbix user's PATH.

I got this behavior to stop by specifying the full path to the mysqladmin and mysql binaries. So

UserParameter=mysql.qps,mysqladmin -umonitor status|cut -f9 -d":"

changes to

UserParameter=mysql.qps,/usr/local/bin/mysqladmin -umonitor status|cut -f9 -d":"

Now, the mysql userparameters will work even after a reboot.
