[no one]

Hi every one how are you ?
I want write a script

The functionality of the program when installing any software on the server is sending a message to mail a pre-specified content of the message is the program was installed on the server and software is also pre-defined

[nafirici]

so are you asking for us to write you a script to do this? What language are you planning to have this written in? If it's php, you could start by looking at the mail() function.

I want bash or python or perl
the scripts should install in the server by ssh root

Please would you help me with this Project ??

Please don't keep on bumping this thread. It's not reasonable to expect that anyone will write your program for you.

If you want to make progress with your project:

1. Specify in detail what this program is to do - your OP is very vague.

When who installs software? What software (examples)? How will they be installing it?

is sending a message to mail a pre-specified content of the message is the program was installed on the server

Ok (I think).

and software is also pre-defined

What do you mean by that?

2. Choose a language and attempt to write this program yourself. If you have problems, you get errors or it doesn't work as expected, post the code, the errors and what you wanted it to do when asking for help.


Edit: Alternatively if you want to employ someone to develop your program, try the Software Requests forum.

Confused by your question.

You can grab the return status from any command in bash and then act on that.

i.e
rpm -Ivh software.rpm
if [ $? -ne 0 ] ; then
# then your mail action for failure.
else
# action successful.
fi

So.. Let me help you...

I want a script written for _______.(likely CentOS) Whenever a program is installed using yum I would like a E-Mail sent to ________(E-Mail Address/User) that states the program that was installed via yum, and whether it installed successfully without errors, or if it did encounter errors I would like the E-Mail to state the errors encountered.

Hello,

Can you write what you want in your native language perhaps, and someone can use a translator to understand you a little bit better? You're not saying what you want.

when root of server install a program by yum

I want the server send meesage to email

so I want script to do that

scriot by python or perl or bash any thing that can do this object

[cselzer]

Ossec can already do this. http://www.ossec.net/

Can't logwatch already do this? I have never looked into it specifically, but am fairly sure that it is possible to configure logwatch to generate a report of everything that has been installed/uninstalled the previous day... presumably it can also be configured to report installation errors.
