[Xymon] Server side external scripts not working

[Payal Gupta]

Hi All,

I am using xymon 4.3.10.
I have a server side external script in ~xymon/server/ext/.
I have added an entry for the script in ~xymon/server/etc/tasks.cfg as follows:

[test]
   ENVFILE $XYMONHOME/etc/xymonserver.cfg
   CMD $XYMONHOME/ext/test
   LOGFILE $XYMONSERVERLOGS/test.log
   INTERVAL 6m

I have made an entry for the same in hosts.cfg as well.
In browser, a new column is updated with this test name but nothing is being
shown other than a horizontal line.

When i restarted the xymon server, i got this in my LOGFILE :

2013-04-17 16:14:02 Whoops ! Failed to send message (Connection failed)
2013-04-17 16:14:02 ->  Could not connect to Xymon daemon at xymon-server-ip:1984
(Connection refused)
2013-04-17 16:14:02 ->  Recipient 'xymon-server-ip', timeout 15
2013-04-17 16:14:02 ->  1st line: 'config hosts.cfg'
2013-04-17 16:14:02 Cannot load hosts.cfg from xymond, code 5
2013-04-17 16:14:02 Failed to load from xymond, reverting to file-load

I am not able to understand the problem. Is there anything I had left?

Thanks and Regards,
