zabbix_get working: custom item not

[alnipper49]

Hi all,

My guess is that this is due to how the value is being returned by my script but after three days of pouring over forums and manuals I'm throwing in the towel and posting.

The script is a powershell script on a Windows server. It's designed to tell me how old the most recent file it (it's a directory full of nightly mysqldumps). All timeouts have been set to way more than it takes to run manually

Here is the script:

$test=New-TimeSpan -Start $(gci e:\database | sort LastWriteTime | select -last 1 |select -ExpandProperty LastWriteTime ) | %{ $_.TotalHours}
Write-Output $test

Here is the pertinent entry in my agent config:

UserParameter=backup.sosh,powershell -File "C:\Zabbix\scripts\backup-soshdb.ps1"

I've confirmed that I can pull the information from the zabbix server using zabbix_get:

zabbix_get -s 10.222.222.25 -k "backup.sosh"
6.21479828247222

(this information is correct)

This is the error that I'm getting with the key under the custom icon


And finally this is what the item looks like


Thanks to any help in advance. I'm truly tearing my hair out over this one.

Hi alnipper49,
i've spotted that you've defined user parameter backup.sosh , but in WebUI you use sosh.backup!

Alex!
