I am using the check_pgsql plugin to check my postgres database on a
remote server. My postgres password has special characters "$" and
"#". It works fine from the command line when I parse my password
using the "\" escape sequence. But I tried from Nagios configuration
file and it says "Password authentication failed." commands.cfg has
define command{
command_name check_postgres
command_line $USER1$/check_pgsql -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -l $ARG1$ -p
$ARG2$ -d $ARG3$
}
unix.cfg
define service{
use generic-service
host_name server1
service_description Postgres Database Engine
check_command
check_postgres!nagios!pa$$w#rd!database_name
}
In commands.cfg I have tried putting the password directly with escape
sequence and double quotes, with no luck.
Can anyone please help me resolve this issue?
Thanks.
