What exactly do you not see working? Xymon really has a number of moving pieces that all work together. From a network perspective, there is Xymon daemon and a Web server. The Xymon daemon accepts and routes messages from clients. Other components processes those messages and ultimately static HTML pages get generated. Then a web server serves up those HTML pages for you to view. Based on the netstat output you posted, I'm guessing the Xymon daemon is (probably) accepting and processing messages just fine, but when you attempt to view the Web interface, you're not seeing anything. Something (I'm assuming Xymon) is binding to the standard port on "any configured IP address" (0.0.0.0:1984), but I'm not seeing anything LISTENING on port 80 or 443. Going to be hard to view the web interface without that. What OS (and version) are you running this from? What did you use for a Web server? Apache? Nginx?

Powershell windows client bug
by stef.coene＠docum.org 13 Jun '19

13 Jun '19

Hi, I had some strange error when sending the data via xymoncgimsg.cgi. Using port 1984 was working fine. The procs check was giving this error: "Expected string Name not found in ps output header" When comparing the data I found out that the \r was not stripped when using xymoncgimsg.cgi. So the solution was to strip the \r from the output. I inserted this line at line 3020 to solve my issue: $msg = $msg.Replace("`r","") Stef

Files removed from analysis.cfg still show in Files page
by misc_spam＠yahoo.com 13 Jun '19

We'd been monitoring a set of files for presence and age using the following in analysis.cfg. FILE /adabckcurrent/db038.adabck red mtime<122400 TIME=*:0530:1730 FILE /adabckcurrent/db041.adabck red mtime<122400 TIME=*:0530:1730 FILE /adabckcurrent/db042.adabck red mtime<122400 TIME=*:0530:1730 FILE /adabckcurrent/db043.adabck red mtime<122400 TIME=*:0530:1730 FILE /adabckcurrent/db044.adabck red mtime<122400 TIME=*:0530:1730 FILE /adabckcurrent/db045.adabck red mtime<122400 TIME=*:0530:1730 all the file links on the File page show the appropriate info as expected for each [file:/adabckcurrent/db0XX.adabck] type:100000 (file) mode:664 (-rw-rw-r--) linkcount:1 owner:1003 (sag) group:1003 (sag) size:65968430564 clock:1560369713 (2019/06/12-15:01:53) atime:1560342550 (2019/06/12-07:29:10) ctime:1560342832 (2019/06/12-07:33:52) mtime:1560342832 (2019/06/12-07:33:52) we've since eliminated some of these files and have commented the appropriate lines in analysis.cfg.

Test for all but one host
by tlwilliams4＠vcu.edu 12 Jun '19

I haven't used this specifically, but I think you want to use the EXHOST= statement. CLASS=powershell SVC bbagent status=started EXHOST=server2 Let us know if that works.

Ports showing up as red
by ljswan＠mweb.co.za 12 Jun '19

12 Jun '19

Good day, I have configured xymon to monitor ports 123.161.162. These appear at the bottom of the netstat output and are displaying red with the error that xymon found none of these ports. Is there a limit to the length of file that xymon checks or is there another reason for this? Thank you in advance. Thank You, Leon

System clock is 153 seconds off
by mschultheiss＠ivytech.edu 12 Jun '19

12 Jun '19

We're getting an alert on one of our systems that the system clock is 153 seconds off yet when we compare the system's time with the Xymon server's time they're functionally identical. Both systems are synched with NTP via chronyd and we're seeing less than 0.00001 seconds difference when we check chrony's status. What can we check to see why Xymon's thinking the system's 2.5 minutes off? -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Schultheiss, RHCSA, RHCE OIT Administration Sr. Unix Systems Engineer Ivy Tech Community College schultmc at ivytech.edu

Hi I'm trying to sync the Xymon repos on terabithia.org locally. I had this working when http was accepted but since its gone https, I just see 502 messages in my squid logs: 1559864923.715 585 192.168.0.90 TCP_TUNNEL/502 0 CONNECT terabithia.org:443 - FIRSTUP_PARENT/192.168.0.10 - I've tried wget and curl with the same result: https_proxy=https://192.168.0.12:3128 wget -r --no-parent --no-check-certificate https://terabithia.org/rpms/xymon/el6/ 192.168.0.90 is the local content mirror (RHEL7, fully patched) 192.168.0.10 is our upstream proxy (BlueCoat, managed by another group) 192.168.0.12 is our local proxy (Squid on RHEL7, fully patched) (Not our real IP's) Any ideas? Thanks

Test for all but one host
by jkikpole＠cairodurham.org 05 Jun '19

I want to set up a SVC test for all hosts where CLASS=powershell, except for one host. Is there a clean way to do this or will I have to set up a HOST=... entry for every system? For example, I wanted to do this: CLASS=powershell SVC bbagent status=started However, one and only one system doesn't run bbagent. So is there some kind of "cancel the default" override I can use? Or will I have to do this: HOST=server1 SVC bbagent status=started HOST=server3 SVC bbagent status=started Thanks in advance!
