[Nagiosplug-help] check_squid.pl cannot run in Nagios ; works from the CLI

[J4]

Hi,

I added this to the commands.cfg

# 'check_squid' command definition
define command{
        command_name    check_squid
        command_line    $USER1$/check_squid.pl -u http://www.google.com
-p 10.206.2.131 -l 8080 -e200  2>&1
        }

...and restarted Nagios.

Status now o/ps something more interesting ; Thank-you once more Mark.
Can't locate utils.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/nagios/plugins
/etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0
/usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10
/usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_squid.pl
line 21.

The pm files are in the right place:
# ls -l /usr/local/nagios/libexec/*.pm
-rw-r--r-- 1 nagios nagios 2047 2009-12-09 12:06
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/libplugins.pm
-rwxr-xr-x 1 nagios nagios 2055 2009-12-09 11:37
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/utils.pm

I googled a little and note this is a common problem. I read many
threads about it but none that provided a solution that I could follow.
