Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I have put the below entries in nagios commands.cfg
file I am running Nagios 3.4.4 on CentOS 6.4.

define command {
command_name notify-host-by-hipchat
command_line /usr/bin/hipsaint
--token=c29bab160e8e6a4f3ca39ba6fe7c1d --room=67307 --type=host
--inputs="$HOSTNAME$|$LONGDATETIME$|$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$|$HOSTADDRESS$|$HOSTSTATE$|$HOSTOUTPUT$"
-n
}
define command {
command_name notify-service-by-hipchat
command_line /usr/bin/hipsaint
--token=c29bab160e8e6a4f3ca39ba6fe7c1d --room=67307 --type=service
--inputs="$SERVICEDESC$|$HOSTALIAS$|$LONGDATETIME$|$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$|$HOSTADDRESS$|$SERVICESTATE$|$SERVICEOUTPUT$"
-n
}

I am unable to see any nagios alert messages in hipchat window. Please let
me know if anyone needs more information.

Regards,

Kaushal

Have you tried running the command manually on the command line as the

Hi,

So it appears that this isn't a nagios issue, please address this
problem with hipsaint:

For what it is worth, even of not a nagios issue, from the error it appears
that your input string should be pipe-delimited.

So to test you'd do something like

/usr/bin/hipsaint --token=c29bab160e8e6a4f3ca39ba6fe7c1d --room=67307
--type=service --inputs="Main Website solr|Wed Jul 31 20:42:28 IST
2013|Recovery| 192.168.70.15|Recovery|Ping OK"

When you replaced the macros, you also replaced the pipe characters with
space, causing the python spit method to fail.

Thanks Scott, It worked as expected as I was missing the pipe character (*|
*) in the command.
