powershell script with BBWin
by Neil.Simmonds＠express-gifts.co.uk 12 Dec '13

12 Dec '13

I've created a powershell script that upon completion creates a file in C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp just as I have many VBS scripts doing. The file is called Trans and disappears from the tmp directory as would be expected, however the Trans column never updates on the relevant page in Xymon. If I copy the contents of the file and create a new file with exactly the same name, then paste the contents in, it disappears as expected and the column updates on Xymon. Has anyone any idea why the powershell generated file is not successfully updating Xymon ? I've checked all the logs and there is nothing there.

Hi Hope someone can offer insight into this issue whereby the xymonnet.log continues to report the following error. exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program xymonnet because of the following errors: 0509-150 Dependent module ../lib/libpcre.a(libpcre.so.1) could not be loaded. 0509-022 Cannot load module ../lib/libpcre.a(libpcre.so.1). 0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.

HTTP Post tests

What does the cert have for the CN in the Subject? If it doesn't match the hostname, that's probably why you get the error. I don't know if Xymon can be told to ignore those, but the hosts.cfg man page does have a suggestion that might work. In the section "Testing sites by IP address": "Instead the IP-address to connect to can be overridden by specifying it as: http://www.sample.com=1.2.3.4/index.html The "=1.2.3.4" will cause xymonnet to run the test against the IP-address "1.2.3.4", while still trying to access the virtual website with the name " www.sample.com"."

Keep getting 403 Forbidden on /xymon
by douglas.strick＠gmail.com 12 Dec '13

You helped me figure out the problem. When I configured xymon initially I wasn't sure which IP on this test box to use so I decided to set it to 0.0.0.0 thinking it would bind to all addresses. Apparently that's not the case. Once I changed the IP for XYMONSERVERIP in /usr/local/xymon/server/etc/xymonserver.cfg. As soon as I made that change I'm able to get the xymon the xymon status page to come up. What's interesting is the xymonlaunch.log file still shows it's listening on 0.0.0.0 even though I modified the xymonserver.cfg. 2013-12-10 08:24:13 Setting up network listener on 0.0.0.0:1984 Also, I went back to verify the original apache issue by putting the out of box xymon-apache.conf in /etc/httpd/conf.d which still throws the 403 errors.

Keep getting 403 Forbidden on /xymon
by douglas.strick＠gmail.com 10 Dec '13

I just installed xymon on a Fedora 18 local desktop for a POC. No matter what I try I can't access the web console. This apache instance works fine on everything else so I'm not sure what I'm missing. I've ensured the file system has global read and execute permissions for all users to view the content and I've even added apache user to the xymon group. The apache error logs show: AH01630: client denied by server configuration: /usr/local/xymon/server/www/ Below is my httpd.conf. I eliminated all other config issues by commenting out the Include conf.d/*.conf line and copied the contents of xymon-apache.conf into httpd.conf directly with no success. Any other suggestions? # # This is the main Apache HTTP server configuration file. It contains the # configuration directives that give the server its instructions. # See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/> for detailed information. # In particular, see # <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/directives.html> # for a discussion of each configuration directive. # # Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding # what they do. They're here only as hints or reminders. If you are unsure # consult the online docs. You have been warned. # # Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many # of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the # server will use that explicit path. If the filenames do *not* begin # with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so 'log/access_log' # with ServerRoot set to '/www' will be interpreted by the # server as '/www/log/access_log', where as '/log/access_log' will be # interpreted as '/log/access_log'. # # ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's # configuration, error, and log files are kept. # # Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path. If you point # ServerRoot at a non-local disk, be sure to specify a local disk on the # Mutex directive, if file-based mutexes are used. If you wish to share the # same ServerRoot for multiple httpd daemons, you will need to change at # least PidFile. # ServerRoot "/etc/httpd" # # Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or # ports, instead of the default.

HTTP Post tests

Hey, I'm having an issue with form based content checks using post. It took me a while to realize that my url test was actually working. However, the information I'm trying to trigger on is actually in the headers (as "Exception") and not the body. Any way to get Xymon to parse headers as well? For the curious, I'm using the RESTClient extension to FF to test the results. thanks =G=
