Script returns 0 values

[berkes]

i wrote a script to get snmp information from a Redline system

-----script start---------
#!/bin/sh
RSSMIN=`snmpwalk -v 1 -c public $1 1.3.6.1.4.1.10728.2.16.3.3.1.0 |grep INTEGER | cut -c56-57`
RSSMEAN=`snmpwalk -v 1 -c public $1 1.3.6.1.4.1.10728.2.16.3.3.2.0 |grep INTEGER | cut -c56-57`
RSSMAX=`snmpwalk -v 1 -c public $1 1.3.6.1.4.1.10728.2.16.3.3.3.0 |grep INTEGER | cut -c56-57`
SINADR=`snmpwalk -v 1 -c public $1 1.3.6.1.4.1.10728.2.16.3.3.4.0 |grep INTEGER | cut -c56-57`

printf "rssmin:%d rssmean:%d rssmax:%d sinadr:%d\n" $RSSMIN $RSSMEAN $RSSMAX $SINADR
-----------script end--------

when i run from command line as user cactiuser(the poller user) i get this
[cactiuser@redhat log]$ /var/www/html/cacti/scripts/redline_dbm 199.202.64.253
rssmin:50 rssmean:49 rssmax:49 sinadr:8
[cactiuser@redhat log]$

but when i check the cacti.log , the poller answers this :
11/08/2005 04:17:35 PM - CACTID: Poller[0] Host[12] DS[111] SCRIPT: sh /var/www/html/cacti/scripts/redline_dbm 199.202.64.253, output: rssmin:0 rssmean:0 rssmax:0 sinadr:0

someone has an idea why ?

Without more detail it is tough to say, do you have exact error messages?

One thing to think about:
Put full paths in your scripts.

Example in your script:
DONT DO
snmpwalk xxx
DO
/usr/local/sbin/snmpwalk xxx

Of course you should check and test (and know) the full path to your binaries.

Example type:
whereis snmpwalk
/opt/net-snmp/bin/snmpwalk
As you can see, mine is in a custom location.

Putting the full path to things is not only a good security idea,
it sometimes fixes things being run by cron (since the cron specified user may not have the same path variables as you).
