  Hi Andy, 

   

  There is a problem with my implementation, please refer to the logs below:

   

  error:
  ./htmlmail: line 30: [: =: unary operator expected


  htmlmail:
  (start of line 30)
  if [ ${RECOVERED} = 1 ]
  then
          export BBCOLORLEVEL="RECOVERED"
          export BBCOLOR="green"
  else
          export BBCOLOR=$BBCOLORLEVEL
  fi

   

  # Convert plain line breaks to HTML breaks

   

  # export BBALPHAMSG="`echo \"$BBALPHAMSG\" | sed '/>$/!s/$/<BR>/'`"

   

  # Convert Hobbit colour tags to embedded image tags

   

  export BBALPHAMSG="`echo \"$BBALPHAMSG\" | sed 's/&blue/<img src="cid:blue.gif">/g'`"
  export BBALPHAMSG="`echo \"$BBALPHAMSG\" | sed 's/&clear/<img src="cid:clear.gif">/g'`"

  export BBALPHAMSG="`echo \"$BBALPHAMSG\" | sed 's|http:.*|<a href="&">&</a>|g'`"

   

  # Run Perl script to generate email

   

  /home/hobbit/server/bin/htmlmail.pl > /dev/null 2>&1

   

  /var/log/hobbit/page.log:
  Paging script /home/hobbit/server/bin/htmlmail terminated with status 2

   

  What seems to be the problem?

   

  Thanks in advance!

    Hi Ryan,

     

    Here's what I use, in three parts:

     

    FIRST:  The mail script /opt/hobbit/bin/htmlmail

      #!/opt/csw/bin/bash
      #
      # Script get the following environment variables pre-defined so
      # that they can send a meaningful alert:
      #
      #    BBCOLORLEVEL  - The current color of the status
      #    BBALPHAMSG    - The full text of the status log triggering the alert
      #    ACKCODE       - The "cookie" that can be used to acknowledge the alert
      #    RCPT          - The recipient, from the SCRIPT entry
      #    BBHOSTNAME    - The name of the host that the alert is about
      #    MACHIP        - The IP-address of the host that has a problem
      #    BBSVCNAME     - The name of the service that the alert is about
      #    BBSVCNUM      - The numeric code for the service. From SVCCODES definition.
      #    BBHOSTSVC     - HOSTNAME.SERVICE that the alert is about.
      #    BBHOSTSVCCOMMAS - As BBHOSTSVC, but dots in the hostname replaced with commas
      #    BBNUMERIC     - A 22-digit number made by BBSVCNUM, MACHIP and ACKCODE.
      #    RECOVERED     - Is "1" if the service has recovered.
      #    EVENTSTART    - Timestamp when the current status (color) began
      #    DOWNSECS      - Number of seconds the service has been down.
      #    DOWNSECSMSG   - When recovered, holds the text "Event duration : N" where
      #                    N is the DOWNSECS value.
      #    CFID          - Line-number in the hobbit-alerts.cfg file that caused the script to be invoked.
      #                    Can be useful when troubleshooting alert configuration rules

       

      #
      # Minumum hobbit-alerts.cfg entry -
      # SCRIPT /opt/hobbit/bin/htmlmail support FORMAT=PLAIN
      #

       

      if [ ${RECOVERED} = 1 ]
      then
              export BBCOLORLEVEL="RECOVERED"
              export BBCOLOR="green"
      else
              export BBCOLOR=$BBCOLORLEVEL
      fi

       

      # Convert plain line breaks to HTML breaks

       

      # export BBALPHAMSG="`echo \"$BBALPHAMSG\" | sed '/>$/!s/$/<BR>/'`"

       

      # Convert Hobbit colour tags to embedded image tags

       

      export BBALPHAMSG="`echo \"$BBALPHAMSG\" | sed 's/&blue/<img src="cid:blue.gif">/g'`"
      export BBALPHAMSG="`echo \"$BBALPHAMSG\" | sed 's/&clear/<img src="cid:clear.gif">/g'`"
      export BBALPHAMSG="`echo \"$BBALPHAMSG\" | sed 's/&green/<img src="cid:green.gif">/g'`"
      export BBALPHAMSG="`echo \"$BBALPHAMSG\" | sed 's/&purple/<img src="cid:purple.gif">/g'`"

      export BBALPHAMSG="`echo \"$BBALPHAMSG\" | sed 's/&yellow/<img src="cid:yellow.gif">/g'`"

       

      # Fix link at base of message as they are removed in PLAIN format

       

      export BBALPHAMSG="`echo \"$BBALPHAMSG\" | sed 's|http:.*|<a href="&">&</a>|g'`"

       

      # Run Perl script to generate email

       

      /opt/hobbit/bin/htmlmail.pl > /dev/null 2>&1

    SECOND:  The perl script to format and send the message /opt/hobbit/bin/htmlmail.pl

      #!/opt/csw/bin/perl -w

       

      use strict;
      use MIME::Lite;

       

      my $rcpt = $ENV{'RCPT'};
      my $bbhostsvc = $ENV{'BBHOSTSVC'};
      my $bbcolorlevel = $ENV{'BBCOLORLEVEL'};
      my $bbalphamsg = $ENV{'BBALPHAMSG'};

       

      my $subject = $bbhostsvc . " " . $bbcolorlevel;
      my $htmldata = join("",
              "<BODY BGCOLOR=\"#FFFFFF\" TEXT=\"#000000\" LINK=\"#0000FF\" ALINK =\"#FF0000\" VLINK=\"#800080\">\n",
              "<FONT FACE=\"Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica\" SIZE=\"3\">\n",
              "<PRE>\n",
              $bbalphamsg,
              "\n",
              "</PRE>\n",
              "</FONT>\n",
              "</BODY>"
      );

       

      my $msg = MIME::Lite->new
      (
              Subject => $subject,
              To      => $rcpt,
              Type    => 'multipart/related'
      );

       

      $msg->attach
      (
              Type    => 'text/html',
              Data    => $htmldata,
      );

       

      if($htmldata =~ m/blue.gif/)
              {$msg->attach(Type => 'image/gif', Id => 'blue.gif', Path => '/opt/hobbit/server/www/gifs/blue.gif')}
      if($htmldata =~ m/clear.gif/)
              {$msg->attach(Type => 'image/gif', Id => 'clear.gif', Path => '/opt/hobbit/server/www/gifs/clear.gif')}
      if($htmldata =~ m/green.gif/)
              {$msg->attach(Type => 'image/gif', Id => 'green.gif', Path => '/opt/hobbit/server/www/gifs/green.gif')}
      if($htmldata =~ m/purple.gif/)
              {$msg->attach(Type => 'image/gif', Id => 'purple.gif', Path => '/opt/hobbit/server/www/gifs/purple.gif')}
      if($htmldata =~ m/red.gif/)
              {$msg->attach(Type => 'image/gif', Id => 'red.gif', Path => '/opt/hobbit/server/www/gifs/red.gif')}
      if($htmldata =~ m/yellow.gif/)
              {$msg->attach(Type => 'image/gif', Id => 'yellow.gif', Path => '/opt/hobbit/server/www/gifs/yellow.gif')}

       

      $msg->send();

    THIRD:  Configure your hobbit-alerts.cfg lines like this:

      SCRIPT /opt/hobbit/bin/htmlmail Someone at nowhere.com FORMAT=TEXT

    You will obviously need to adjust all of the paths to suit your installation!  And don''t forget to check you have the MIME::Lite perl module and whatever other dependencies it requires.

     

    HTH,

    Andy.

    Thanks for the quick reply!

     

    Make a custom script; can someone share me the their script and teach me how to configure it?

     

    Thanks in advance!

      Pretty sure you'll have to create a custom script and put in the HTML code in the data section of your email.  To my knowledge you can't simply stick in text in the alert Hobbit sends.

      Hi all!

       

      Just a follow up newbie question.

       

      How can I make hobbit to send me alerts with icon like that alert below?

      I am receiving alerts like this:

       

      &yellow Warnings in <a href="/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?CLIENT=HOST&SECTION=msgs:/var/adm/messages">/var/adm/messages</a>

      Hobbit 4.2.0 w/ all-in-one patch instaled in Fedora Core 6
