Hi again, Mikan.

Firstly I have moved the thread to the PandoraFMS forum.

Secondly, and regarding to your question…
You can use sounds alerts, it’s quite easy actually, just go to: manage alerts, and in alert type just set “sound alert” (in the agent menu; view agent->manage alerts)
You should go also to “manage alerts” (in the menu on the left, that’s to say, “Administration:Manage alerts”, and click on the “Sound Alert” you will see by default:
/usr/bin/play /usr/share/sounds/alarm.wav

Change it to fit your needs.

Hope this helps
Manuel

“still not work” doesn’t help too much actually, try to be more specific
Are you able to run manually the entire command the alert is supposed to run?
Try it and let us know the results

Cheers

Most likely you might need to check all that…
Is that *your* path?
Do you have alarm.wav there?
What happen if you try with any other .wav file?

You’ve a problem with your audio system, not with Pandora :). Try to probe audio using another source mpg123 or a simple redirection like:

cat /usr/bin/yes >> /dev/audio

This should generate “noise” on your speakers, if not, you have a problem. Try to solve before launching an alert with Pandora. Check permissions of /dev/audio and make sure that user running pandora server is able to write to it.
