Well, that's good. It means the client task is getting launched properly.

the "xymon call" is actually "$XYMON $XYMSRV..." in what should be
/home/shire/./bin/xymonclient.sh, based on what the output here. You'd
want to change that to "$XYMON --debug $XYMSRV..."


After that, can you run the following?

/home/shire/./bin/xymoncmd --env=/home/shire/./etc/xymonclient.cfg sh -x
/home/shire/./bin/xymonclient.sh


That should give us more indication of where we're failing.


HTH,
