problem with hostextinfo

[Jerome Alet]

Hi,

I'm using Nagios 1.3.0+pre4 from Debian with the PostgreSQL
database.

All works fine once I fixed the startup script, but now
I can't manage to find how to use my own images instead of the
big '?' in statusmap.

I've tried by defining :

        hostextinfo[somehostname] = ...
        
in cgi.cfg, but with no luck        

then I've used :

        xedtemplate_config_file=hostextinfo.cfg
        
and I've filled hostextinfo.cfg with the new syntax, with no luck        

then I've defined access to the PostgreSQL database to retrieve hostextinfo,
and I've added some lines into the hostextinfo table, again with no luck.

statusmap.cgi is linked with libpq (PostgreSQL) so I thought it would
use the database, it doesn't.

how can I diagnose what is wrong ? I don't see any error in Apache's
error_log file.

is there a way to have statusmap.cgi tell me what it does ? (debug mode ?)

interestingly the nagios logo and the big '?' logo are correctly displayed
in the statusmap.

any idea ?

thanks in advance
