Hi, on Xymon server 4.3.28 (Ubuntu 18.04) I've been battling with 2 issues which I suspect may be related...
#1 The xymon clients are successfully sending data to the server, i.e. I see my custom clientlaunch extension script names received in the histlogs dir and as columns on the bbdisplay. However all the standard client checks (cpu, disk, procs etc) are missing from both histlogs and the bbdisplay. I know the Xymon clients are correctly sending everything because these clients (v4.3.28) were previously connected to an earlier version of bbd where everything worked. It's the same situation with the local xymon client running on the xymon server - no cpu, disk, procs etc but my custom client script columns are displaying. I do see clientlog data showing in the bbdisplay. Is the xymon server is supposed to receive clientlog data and parse this into these individual items (cpu, disk, procs..)? Could I be missing the task which is responsible for this?
#2 I have been successfully using criticalview.cgi in a previous xymon version to produce custom alert pages. Despite providing a suitable --config= file which should result in some host alerts showing in the output, I continually receive "All Monitored Systems OK". On my previous Xymon version this works as expected. Adding --debug flag has not helped me. I'm fairly confident it's not my --config= file format cos that works perfectly on the previous ver, and it matches the format of the generated critical.cfg.
My question... could these both be caused by the same issue, e.g. a missing env/config variable which I need to set?
Thanks! Tarik
