Hi all

Server info: Host - RHEL6.5 Version - 4.3.17 Packaged by J Cleaver (Terabithia)

I'm having a problem with a definition in /etc/xymon/client-local.cfg.

[host=dmz_ap01] file:ls -ltr /home/enmac/customer-data/CUST9100REP*CSV | tail -n 1

The problem is that Xymon reports bad (red) with the page showing

-rw-r--r-- 1 username groupname14314345 Mar 10 2014 /home/username/customer-data/CUST9100REP20140310002349.CSV File is missing

Now, the file is not missing, and Xymon is correctly showing its mode, size, ownership details, etc. Any ideas what I've done wrong here?

Thanks

Hi Colin,

Well, the first (obvious) question would be whether 'enmac' or 'username' were typos there -- or if they're not referring to the same path. Otherwise I believe simple file globs (or their equivalent) are expected there by logfetch and the '-l' option (ell) you're giving to 'ls' might be confusing it. Can you try it without that?

HTH,
