Hey Guys,
I have a Combo Status, which combines other combo states.
The states are working technically fine, so that a red state in a subcombo=20
is treated as 0 and is affecting the top state.
So it works good for most cases.
The problem I have is, that the States, which are consisting of combos are=20
shown as &unknown (instead of &red or &green) in the xymon page (where a=20
single combo test is working fine).
I will attach a Screenshot for clarification.

You can reproduce the error by simply building a combo out of a combo=20
state.

Combo from Combo (no gifs):


Subcombo (working fine with gif):


Best regards,
Lukas

I can confirm this behaviour with 4.3.27 and 4.3.28.

The following is from 4.3.28 running on Raspbian.

combo.cfg:

	google.dns =3D (google\-public\-dns\-a.google.com.dns || google\-public\-dns=
\-b.google.com.dns )
	pepcom.dns =3D (dns1.pepcom.dns || dns2.pepcom.dns )
	combo.combo.dns =3D ( google.dns + pepcom.dns ) >=3D 1

1. combo:
# xymonq -H google\$ -T dns -q xymondlog
google|dns|green||1511864349|1511957038|1511958838|0|0|127.0.0.1||||N|
green Wed Nov 29 13:03:58 2017

(google\-public\-dns\-a.google.com.dns||google\-public\-dns\-b.google.com.dns=
) =3D (1||1) =3D 1
&green <a href=3D"/xymon-cgi/svcstatus.sh?HOST=3Dgoogle-public-dns-a.google.c=
om&amp;SERVICE=3Ddns">google-public-dns-a.google.com.dns</a>
&green <a href=3D"/xymon-cgi/svcstatus.sh?HOST=3Dgoogle-public-dns-b.google.c=
om&amp;SERVICE=3Ddns">google-public-dns-b.google.com.dns</a>

2. combo:
# xymonq -H ^pepcom\$ -T dns -q xymondlog
pepcom|dns|green||1511864048|1511957038|1511958838|0|0|127.0.0.1||||N|
green Wed Nov 29 13:03:58 2017

(dns1.pepcom.dns||dns2.pepcom.dns) =3D (1||1) =3D 1
&green <a href=3D"/xymon-cgi/svcstatus.sh?HOST=3Ddns1.pepcom&amp;SERVICE=3Ddn=
s">dns1.pepcom.dns</a>
&green <a href=3D"/xymon-cgi/svcstatus.sh?HOST=3Ddns2.pepcom&amp;SERVICE=3Ddn=
s">dns2.pepcom.dns</a>

3. combining both:
# xymonq -H combo.combo -T dns -q xymondlog
combo.combo|dns|green||1511880342|1511957038|1511958838|0|0|127.0.0.1||||N|
green Wed Nov 29 13:03:58 2017

(google.dns+pepcom.dns)>=3D1 =3D (1+1)>=3D1 =3D 1
&unknown <a href=3D"/xymon-cgi/svcstatus.sh?HOST=3Dgoogle&amp;SERVICE=3Ddns">=
google.dns</a>
&unknown <a href=3D"/xymon-cgi/svcstatus.sh?HOST=3Dpepcom&amp;SERVICE=3Ddns">=
pepcom.dns</a>


The links are working fine, so it=E2=80=99s possible to get _relatively_ quic=
k to the needed information. Nevertheless this is a bug that makes combined c=
ombos inconvenient in case of a non-green status.
