I'm trying to write a custom SSH Sensor that shows how many active calls there are in my Asterisk server. This is my script:
#!/bin/bash CALLS=$(asterisk -rx 'sip show channels' | grep ulaw | wc -l) echo "0:$CALLS:OK"
Every time I run it, I get this error: Response not wellformed: "/var/prtg/scripts/activecalls.sh: line 2: asterisk: command not found 0:0:OK " (code: PE132)
Help!!

I figured it out. I was using a non-root user, and only root can execute on the asterisk cli. For reference, I've written a small applet for others to get around this restriction.
int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
argv[0] = "/usr/sbin/asterisk";
argv[1] = "-rx";
argv[2] = "sip show channelstats";
execv(*argv, argv);
}
Compile that with GCC:
| $ gcc calls.c -o calls |
and then let it run as root:
| $ sudo chown root dialplan-reload |
| $ sudo chmod u+s dialplan-reload |
I hope this is helpful!

Dear skyeblue
For additional debugging please activate "Write result to disk" in the sensor settings and check the input the SSH Script Sensor gets. The sensor should get a message like
0:0:OK
or a similar message.
