You should enable debugging/logging in setup.php and check the logs/trigger.log file to see if the trigger you created is being matched.

OK, back from vacation and trying to get this up and running again. I'm trying to get JFF to execute a script if something happens. I've modified the "email.inc.php" to "makeaticket.inc.php" (see below for the script) to just try to create a file so I can see what parameters are passed in what variables. The steps I followed, from a default JFFNMS install (which will fire off the email action when something happens, right?), were to:
 - Go to the "Actions Definition" menu.
- For the "Send Mail" action, I changed the command to be "makeaticket" from "email". JFF will show that a system goes down in the event log, but it doesn't create my file, so I'm guessing the action isn't happening (or my script is screwed up somehow). Any thoughts here? The script I'm using is: <?
 function action_makeaticket ($data) {
 extract($data);
 //debug ($data);
 $from = $parameters[from];
 $to = $parameters[to];
 $subject = $parameters[subject];
 $short = (isset($parameters["short"])?true:false);
 if (!$short) $content[hello] = "Hello ".$user[fullname].":\n";
if (!$short) $signature = "---------------------------------------------------------------------\nJFFNMS - Just for Fun Network Management System\n";
 if (is_array($alarm)) {
     $content[alarm]= "Alarm Time:\t".$alarm[date_start];
if ($alarm[alarm_state]==ALARM_UP)
  $content[alarm] .= " To ".$alarm[date_stop];
$content[alarm] .= "\n".
    "Alarm Type:\t".$alarm[type_description]." ".
    $alarm[state_description]." ".
    ($short?"":"\n");
 }
if (is_array($interface))
     $content["interface"]= "Interface:\t".
     $interface[type_descripton]." ".
     $interface[host_name]." ".
     $interface[zone_shortname]." ".
     $interface["interface"]." ".
     $interface[client_name]." ".
     $interface[description]." ".
     "\n";
 if (is_array($event) && !$short) //FIXME
     foreach ($event as $key=>$event)
  $content["event-$key"]= "Event:\t".
     $event[date]." ".
     $event[type]." ".
     $event[host_name]." ".
     $event[zone]."\n".
     "Event:\t".events_replace_vars($event,$event[text])." ".
     "\n";
$all_content = join($content,"\n"); if ($parameters[comment] && !$short)
     $all_content .= "\nComment: ".$parameters[comment]."\n";
$body = "$all_content \n$signature"; if ($short) $body = str_replace("\t"," ",$body);

        $file = "./testoutput.txt";
        $testdata = "event-date = $event[date]\n".
        "event-type = $event[type]\n".
        "event-host_name = $event[host_name]\n".
        "event-text = $event[text]\n".
        "alarm-date_start = $alarm[date_start]\n".
        "alarm-type_description = $alarm[type_description]\n".
        "alarm-state_description = $alarm[$state_description]\n".

        "interface-host_name = $interface[host_name]\n".
        "interface-interface = $interface[interface]\n".
        "interface-description = $interface[description]\n";
$fp = fopen ("$file", "wb");
        fwrite ($fp, $testdata);
        fclose ($fp);
return $result;
    }
?>

Look at the email.inc.php Instead of the mail command you could
use exec()

Hmm, that section needs some work!
Time to fire up vim.

Javier evilly uses extract() in that example.

The action function gets one parameter, which is an array of
arrays. The arrays are:
  $data['parameters'] = an array of the user and action parameters,
  defined in the gui
  $data['alarm'] = the usual alarm values
  $data['interface'] = the usual interface vaues

See
http://www.jffnms.org/docs/expanding.html#sec:commonparms
for that those values are.
