Nagios doesn't capture anything sent to STDERR, so make sure it is sending its output to STDOUT. Also make sure that the first line returned when an error occurs is not an empty line; an empty line is considered "No output". Perhaps you'd like to run the plugin (as nagios) when it is erroring and show us the output? > I guess there is an easy explanation? > > Thank you very much, > > Alex Stuart ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Increase Visibility of Your 3D Game App & Earn a Chance To Win $500!
