I am trying to setup HTML email alerts, I found this script on xymonton which appears to be exactly what I need https://wiki.xymonton.org/doku.php/alerts:html_mail I followed the instructions and added it to my alerts.cfg.
It successfully sends HTML emails, however it doesn't seem to contain a colour to match the alert which I think it should? I assumed I would get a line down the left side similar to what you see on the xymon webpages.
This is what I get emailed: [cid:image001.png at 01D019DE.64A62AB0]
If I look at the HTML source for the email I think based on this I can assume the scripts logic is successfully matching the alert colour to the correct .gif it needs:
<body background="cid:bkg-red.gif">
I checked on the xymon server and these files appear to exist where they need to:
usr/lib/xymon/server/www/gifs# ls arrow.gif bkg-red.gif clear.gif favicon-purple.ico green-recent.gif red-ack.gif xymonbody.css bkg-blue.gif bkg-yellow.gif clear-recent.gif favicon-red.ico purple-ack.gif red.gif yellow-ack.gif bkg-clear.gif blue-ack.gif favicon-blue.ico favicon-unknown.ico purple.gif red-recent.gif yellow.gif bkg-green.gif blue.gif favicon-clear.ico favicon-yellow.ico purple-recent.gif unknown.gif yellow-recent.gif bkg-purple.gif blue-recent.gif favicon-green.ico green.gif README unknown-recent.gif zoom.gif
Am I doing something obivously wrong? And how do I go about troubleshooting this
Note:
This example is from a custom test, but I don't think that could be the cause of the problem as the script is determing the colour of the alert as expected.Xymon 4.3.17 running on Debian 6
