hostextinfo being ignored

HI,

 

Using Nagios 1.2 and template based extended information, (not Nagmin
though)

 

>From cgi.cfg (and from the documentation example) - 

 

xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/hostextinfo.cfg

xedtemplate_config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/serviceextinfo.cfg

 

from my experience in using this method, you can only define one
‘xedtemplate_config_file’, so I ADDED the contents of ‘servcicextinfo.cfg’
information into ‘hostextinfo.cfg’ and this seems to work fine.

 

Would appear you can’t “split your configuration data into multiple files by
adding more than one directive to your CGI configuration files” (from
documentation), just takes the first directive.

 

I was having very similar problems and this resolved them, anyone else come
across this?

 

Hope that helps

 

Rafe

Subject: [Nagios-users] hostextinfo being ignored

 

Hi,

I have already sent my problem the last week and nobody answer me.

I see my hosts in statusmap but when i want to use hostextinfo to add an
image or coordinates, nothing happens.

And when i choose User-supplied coords in the layout method, it says to me
that i have not supplied any. 

I don't find solutions to solve it.

Do someone have an idea?

Here the post that i have been sent:


I use nagios 1.2 and nagmin 2.1.0 to configure hosts and services on solaris
boxe.

I compiled nagios with mysql database support using the option
--with-mysql-xdata.

I see my hosts in statusmap but when i want to use hostextinfo to add an
image or coordinates, nothing happens.

I defined in table 'Host Extended Information' of Nagmin, those hosts
without success:


 

Template

Host Name

Notes URL

Icon Image

Icon Image Alt

VRML Image

Statusmap Image

2D Coordinates

3D Coordinates

I have got serveral problems:

1. The gd2 images don't appear.
If i execute ldd statusmap.cgi, it find the gd library
        libmysqlclient.so.10 =>
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.10
        libgd.so.2 =>    /usr/local/lib/libgd.so.2
        libiconv.so.2 =>         /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so.2
        libz.so =>       /usr/local/lib/libz.so
        libm.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libm.so.1
        libpng.so.3 =>   /usr/local/lib/libpng.so.3
        libjpeg.so.62 =>         /usr/local/lib/libjpeg.so.62
        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libc.so.1
        libz.so.1 (SUNW_1.1) =>  (version not found)
        libcrypt_i.so.1 =>       /usr/lib/libcrypt_i.so.1
        libgen.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libgen.so.1
        libsocket.so.1 =>        /usr/lib/libsocket.so.1
        libnsl.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
        libXpm.so.4.11 =>        /usr/local/lib/libXpm.so.4.11

        libfreetype.so.6 =>      /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.so.6
        libpng12.so.0 =>         /usr/local/lib/libpng12.so.0
        libz.so.1 (SUNW_1.1) =>  (version not found)
        libgcc_s.so.1 =>         /usr/local/lib/libgcc_s.so.1

        libz.so.1 (SUNW_1.1) =>  (version not found)
        /usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Blade-100/lib/libc_psr.so.1

I have even made this command: crle -l /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib, but that
didn't change nothing

# crle

Configuration file [3]: /var/ld/ld.config
  Default Library Path (ELF):   /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib
  Trusted Directories (ELF):    /usr/lib/secure  (system default)

Command line:
  crle -c /var/ld/ld.config -l /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib

2. I create a new gd2 image in /usr/local/nagios/share/images/logos :
pngtogd2 sun40.png sun.gd2 0 1
When i wanted to choose this new image in the 'Statusmap Image' field of
nagmin, i didn't see it. I realized the directory that took into account was
/opt/webmin/nagmin/images/logos. Why??????

3. If i edit the /usr/local/nagios/etc/HostExtInfo.cfg, i see that extended
informations of hosts are well created:
## NagMIN Configuration File
(/usr/local/nagmin-2.1.0/nagios/HostExtInfo.cfg) for Host
## Generated Thu Jul  1 17:31:44 2004
## NagMIN Configuration File
(/usr/local/nagmin-2.1.0/nagios/HostExtInfo.cfg) for HostExtInfo
## Generated Thu Jul  1 17:31:44 2004
define hostextinfo {
    host_name    aurore.cict.fr
    icon_image    sun40.gif
    icon_image_alt    Sun Server
    statusmap_image    sun.gd2
}
define hostextinfo {
    host_name    telline.cict.fr
    icon_image    hpux.png
    icon_image_alt    HPUX Server
    statusmap_image    hpux.gif
    2d_coords    100,60
}
define hostextinfo {
    host_name    vae.cict.fr
    icon_image    linux40.jpg
    icon_image_alt    Linux Server
    statusmap_image    linux40.png
    2d_coords    50,10
}
## NagMIN Configuration File
(/usr/local/nagmin-2.1.0/nagios/HostExtInfo.cfg) for HostExtTemplate
## Generated Thu Jul  1 17:31:44 2004

4. Another problem with nagmin is that if i want to modify coordinates of
one host for example, that don't works. When i click on 'save' button,
nothing changes.

5. I have a question. Is it possible in status map that one host becomes red
when a service becomes critical or yellow when it becomes in warning?


I cannot any more what make. Can someone help me, please?

Thanks.

Carole.
