Hi All, Question. Some of my test scritps are not showing when they are yellow or red on bb2.html. I supposed it can be solved by bbgen command, like: bbgen --includecolumns=mytest Is that correct or there is another way to add my ext test to bb2.html page? Thank you! Rosana

[hobbit] Critical Systems view loading problem
by gumby3203＠gmail.com 28 Dec '07

28 Dec '07

As I previously posted, I get this problem every now and then as well. About a month back, the Critical Systems page suddenly become useless when it became stuck with that "Internal Server Error" issue. My co-worker came across an apparent fix that the file permissions for the hobbit-nkview.cfgfile were wrong, and the --debug option in hobbitcgi.cfg for hobbit-nkview.cfg was preventing the page from loading. This now appears NOT to be the case, because the eternal Internal Server Error problem is back. It seems it was just coincidence that he made the changes when the Critical Systems page started working again. Also, while I was in the process of typing the above section, it appears the Critical Systems page is working again. I made absolutely no changes to anything during this time. Unfortunately now, as before, I cannot determine any causal relationship. Additionally, unlike Tracy's problem below, it doesn't appear to be related to the alerts that are showing up either (I can confirm that no alert statuses changed while I was writing this). I'm going to have to go with Tracy's assesment that it is a pointer issue as pointed out. I do recall during my programming days of incorrect pointer usage in the code causing intermittent and non-reproducible errors occuring... Unfortunately, it's been a while since I've programmed in C/C++, and I would have to spend a while with the code to see if this really is the issue, and how to fix it. All I know is, it sounds plausible. Anyone else have any ideas, or am I just going a little off the deep end with this (which is quite possible)?

Hobbit client
by FRamaekers＠ailife.com 27 Dec '07

27 Dec '07

This is my first attempt at installing a hobbit client on a Linux box, and I'm attempting to install it on the same box that the server is running on. I have the client running, but the only items reported are bbgen, bbtest, conn, hobbitd, info and trends. I want information on disk and CPU utilization. Is this possible? Is it possible to combine the client/server information? Right now I'm getting two lnes: subpage Hobbit Hobbit Server 127.0.0.1 Hobbit.domain.com # bbd ssh ftp http://DoyleBrunson.ailife.com/ apache=http://thisserver.domain.com/server-status?auto TRENDS:*,apache:apache|apache1|apache2|apache3 10.2.0.99 Hobbit # Also, I'm getting the following in msg.Hobbit.txt: [msgs:/var/log/messages] Cannot open logfile /var/log/messages : Permission denied [logfile:/var/log/messages] type:100000 (file) mode:600 (-rw-------) linkcount:1 owner:0 (root) group:0 (root) size:219873 clock:1198690147 (2007/12/26-11:29:07) atime:1198688817 (2007/12/26-11:06:57) ctime:1198689945 (2007/12/26-11:25:45) mtime:1198689945 (2007/12/26-11:25:45) Frank M.

Little change-request for do_temperature.c ...
by rolf.masfelder＠nector.de 27 Dec '07

27 Dec '07

Hallo Henrik, the last Days were a litle bit cold in germany. So i found that rrd/do_temperature.c dont work correctly on negative values ... In the part: p = bol + strlen(bol) - 1; while ((p > bol) && isspace((int)*p)) p--; while ((p > bol) && isdigit((int)*p)) p--; tmpF = atoi(p); while ((p > bol) && isspace((int)*p)) p--; while ((p > bol) && isdigit((int)*p)) p--; tmpC = atoi(p); there have be two additional lines of code: p = bol + strlen(bol) - 1; while ((p > bol) && isspace((int)*p)) p--; while ((p > bol) && isdigit((int)*p)) p--; --> while ((p > bol) && *p == '-') p--; tmpF = atoi(p); while ((p > bol) && isspace((int)*p)) p--; while ((p > bol) && isdigit((int)*p)) p--; --> while ((p > bol) && *p == '-') p--; tmpC = atoi(p); The rrd-File has to bee build with another Minimum for the Values stored. I dont find the code for the creation, but "rrdtool tune temperature.sensor4.rrd -i temperature:-10" did the job for my environment. please insert the lines of code into do_temperature.c greetings to All: (after christmas) I wish you a happy new year Rolf
