The items in the script have depreciated in mysql. This link explains what it has moved to. The perl script sql call will need to be updated. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/performance-schema-variable-table-m… -Kevin -----Original Message----- From: Xymon <xymon-bounces at xymon.com> On Behalf Of Ian Diddams via Xymon Sent: Tuesday, March 23, 2021 5:40 AM To: xymon <xymon at xymon.com> Subject: [Xymon] Xymon-mysql-counters script _______________________________________________ Xymon mailing list Xymon at xymon.com https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://lists.xymon.com/mailman/listinfo/xymon__…

check validity of ssl certificates (without http-status?)
by ms＠compositiv.com 23 Mar '21

23 Mar '21

Hey list, I'm monitoring a lot of hosts, websites and services with xymon and most things are running well. Currently I'm searching for a solution to only monitor the validity of ssl certificates, currently i do this with the HTTP check which does not fit in all of my cases. Example line in hosts.cfg: <IP> domain.tld # noconn https://domain.tld ssldays=30:7 The sslcert check is working but I always get a yellow http check when the website does a redirect 301 for example. In this or many other cases I don't care about the http-status because I only want to validate the certificate and don't care about the application. I've read along the manpages and didn't find any option to suppress the http-check for this host, is there a built in function to do that or a good workaround for my goal? Currently I'm using Xymon Version: 4.3.28 Thanks for your help and tips.

Don't you need a COLOR condition to alert on? Regards Christian

xymon log contains hundreds of errors regarding /bin/dash
by ralphmitchell＠gmail.com 22 Mar '21

/bin/dash is a shell in the EPEL repository: Name : dash Arch : x86_64 Version : 0.5.10.2 Release : 1.el7 Size : 91 k Repo : epel/x86_64 Summary : Small and fast POSIX-compliant shell Description : DASH is a POSIX-compliant implementation of /bin/sh that aims to be as small as possible. It does this without sacrificing speed where possible. In fact, it is significantly faster than bash (the GNU Bourne-Again SHell) for most tasks. If you don't want (or can't) install it, you could probably get away with linking /bin/sh or /bin/bash to /bin/dash.

xymon log contains hundreds of errors regarding /bin/dash
by didds3＠yahoo.co.uk 22 Mar '21

Im sure ive seen an answer to this online before but cannot find it now! xymon client version: xymon-client-4.3.30-1.el7.x86_64 the xymonclient.log has multiple entries nohup: failed to run command '/bin/dash': No such file or directory its clearly not a biggy as xymon does what we need it to do.? This just creates a lot of "nosie" in the logs and ends up with a? woods for trees scenario. there is no /bin/dash unsurprisingly...? is it just a case of creating a softlink of /bin/dash fropm eg /bin/bash ? Or is there soemthing else going on here? cheers didds

Running Xymon 4.3.28, have been since release. I rebuilt my alerts.cfg file from scratch and I have a weird issue with alerts I can't figure out. This seems to be happening on most if not all entries where I have a SERVICE=conn. The only thing I really changed on all my entries was a new mail alias for them, the actual rule itself is the same as before. Entry looks like this: HOST=$rcontrol MAIL $rcontrolmail REPEAT=2h DURATION>10 RECOVERED MAIL $rcontrolmail SERVICE=conn DURATION>10 REPEAT=2d MAIL $rcontrolpage SERVICE=conn DURATION>10 REPEAT=1h TIME=W:1300:2200 MAIL $sms-ems-oncall SERVICE=conn DURATION>10 REPEAT=2d I get an alert, it emails the proper people tied to $rcontrolmail, but it also tries to email SERVICE=conn . I can see them in the email log. Mon Mar 22 13:47:09 2021 host02.procs (159.98.104.166) SERVICE=conn[1022] 1616420829 300 Mon Mar 22 12:59:03 2021 hostlan.disk (199.200.3.170) SERVICE=conn[725] 1616417943 100 Anyone got an idea how to troubleshoot this or what might be causing it?
