Device page not building correct
by A. Lantink 02 Apr '14

02 Apr '14

Hi all, Since a couple of builds i have a problem with the device page. I didn't mention it yet, since I couldn't exactly reproduce since which update the error occurred, and hoped it would go away after some other updates. But it's still here. The page is somehow not completely generated. See below the example of device=1, but all devices have the same problem. The HTML source can be viewed here: http://www.colocenter.nl/observium_device_source.txt It just stops. Running the latest SVN version(5176). The main page, and for example the ports page work fine. It's just the device page. http://www.colostats.nl/devices/ works fine, but http://www.colostats.nl/device/device=ID/ wont. Any idea's what his might be causing? Kind regards, Alexander

API calls return blank page
by Spencer Gaw 02 Apr '14

02 Apr '14

Hey guys, After upgrading my test Observium server to revision 5188, all API calls return a blank page. Going through the Apache error logs, I found: /[Tue Apr 01 16:37:13 2014] [error] [client //REDACTED//] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_vars() in /opt/observium/html/api.php on line 26/ Comparing this section of api.php to my production Observium server running revision 5167, there are some differences: *r5188 api.php* /$vars = get_vars('GET');// //$vars['module'] = (!empty($vars['module']) ? $vars['module'] : "demo"); /*r5167 api.php */foreach ($_GET as $key=>$get_var) {// // if (!empty($get_var)) {// // $vars[$key] = filter_var($get_var, FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);// // }// //}/* *Any ideas where to start on this one? Admittedly, PHP is Greek to me but hopefully this means something to you folks over in Dev Land. If there's any additional info you'd like, please feel free to ask. Regards, SG

imbedded alert graphs missing in alert emails using outlook / gmail
by Martin Smith 01 Apr '14

01 Apr '14

Hello, I'm aware that the imbedded image problem has been discussed on here previously. I believe the final answer was "outlook sucks". Both outlook and Gmail web are unable to display the images, but my android email application works. I asked one of our support guys to take a peak and help shed some light on the matter. According to him, it might boil down to using a cid tag instead of a data tag to imbed the image. I have no idea what that means, but hopefully it will help an intelligent developer. Thanks for any and all help into this matter. I'd love to see graphs in my alerts! I've included his email below for additional details: ------ The specific image in question that is not loading is embedded as a base64 encoded image, with a data tag instead of cid tag for the source URL in the message source. Outlook uses Word for composing and displaying emails, and apparently Word does not support the method by which the png file was embedded, as it does not use a cid tag. The PNG format itself is not the issue, because I was able to acquire the original image, paste it into a new email in Outlook, and send it to myself, and it shows up just fine. Looking at the source in that scenario, the PNG source is using a cid tag. I'm uncertain how the message in question is being generated, and whether the method by which it's embedding the image can be altered, but ultimately it seems like the current method is unsupported by Outlook/Word, and I have not yet found any good fixes or workarounds, other than to change the embedding method, or to run a command in Outlook that will open the email in a web browser, which will then display the image in question.

Help with a simple email setting
by Jake Hansen 01 Apr '14

01 Apr '14

Sorry if this has been posted before but I have been trying to find it for a few hours now. I'm trying to find where the system sets the emailto field when hosts go down. Right now, when a host goes down, somehow its still emailing the old email address sometimes. I have grep -R the entire /opt/observium folder but nothing comes up. I have also tried to set the following setting to no avail $config['alerts']['email']['enable'] = TRUE; $config['alerts']['email']['default'] = "netops(a)blah.com"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['descr'] = "Default Email Alert"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['type'] = "email"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['contact'] = "netops(a)blah.com"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['enable'] = TRUE; But sometimes some of the emails(not all) will still go out to our old email address help(a)blah.com I cant for the life of me figure out how to fix it and have been scouring the observium docs to no avail. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks! -- Jake Hansen Sr. Network Administrator ZTelco / Zray Technologies, Inc. 858-431-4411 Direct 858-565-2155 Office
