It should show up in the fidopoll logs if it actually is running.
Does the event log show an exit code? When I was having issues it was
showing code 127 or something like that, and when it works it shows a 0.

That means it is executing it but it isn't completing.

So it is having an issue running the code, possibly can't find the file you
are trying to execute?

what command are you trying to run? for me its like ./poll.sh, but before
it used to be
./fidopoll 21:4/100|./fidopoll 77:1/100|./mutil mailin etc....

I followed Avon's youtube videos for setting up the echomail stuff

Hi code dc!

On 20 Feb 2020, code dc said the following...

yes it shows 127.

It might be that you are launching fidopoll as "fidopoll" instead of "./fidopoll" -- Mystic switches to the Mystic "root" directory
when executing events, and unless you have that directory (or "." =
always the current directory) somewhere in the Mystic user's PATH, you
need to invoke fidopoll with "./fidopoll" on Linux, or it won't find
the fidopoll binary.

Hope this helps! :)

(I'm actually not 100% sure that adding the Mystic "root" directory to PATH would help either -- depending on how Mystic launches the shell, it might be that it does not read ~/.profile or ~/.bashrc or similar, where one typically sets the PATH.)

Best regards
Zip

check the command line the shell line you are using

perhaps something like

./fidopoll 21:4/100

I think i have fixed it, it was missing the ./ as you mentioned.

thanks everyone for your help.
