This stuff will be replaced sometime. Perhaps both we and cacti are using stupid cookie names? Adam.

observium php session timeout affecting another application?
by Eric 24 Jul '13

24 Jul '13

i'm running two php applications on a LAMP machine. one is cacti, the other is observium. i'm using name-based virtual hosting with one IP address. when i have just the cacti virtual host running, i can stay logged in to cacti forever, i.e. my session never times out. when i enable the observium virtual host, cacti prompts me for my login credentials again after 1-2 minutes. i'm using LDAP authentication for cacti and the built-in authentication for observium (user added via adduser.php). any idea why that would be?

Strange issue
by DaZZa 24 Jul '13

24 Jul '13

Hi folks. I've been noticing a strange issue when using Observium in the last couple of days which has me scratching my head. Occasionally, when I am browsing devices, or device components, I'll get a graph or image which just comes up reading "no authorisation" or similar - and anything else I click on results in my being kicked back to the logon screen. I don't *think* it's an inactivity timeout - at the times I have noticed this happening I specifically noticed it because I was in the middle of doing something. Is there something else I could have misconfigured which would cause this behaviour? Thanks. DaZZa

Re: [Observium] Yamaha RTX1100 router support
by Adam Armstrong 23 Jul '13

Please do not post modifications to Observium files to this list. (Or write them as 'guides' on blogs). It interferes with the svn update mechanism and causes significant issues to users who aren't familiar with RCS. The correct way to submit this is as a patch to jira.observium.org. Thanks, Adam.

Alerting Update
by Adam Armstrong 23 Jul '13

23 Jul '13

Morning Observiumites and Kickstarters. We're pleased to announce that we've reached a development milestone on the road to replacing all of our hated monitoring applications. The last 2 weeks spent in Amsterdam collaborating on the alerting system have been immensely productive, thanks to the great visionaries Maarten Moerman of eBay and Job Snijders of Atrato, we would like to thank them for their continuous support, Coke Zero and Appelkoeks. The fundamental schema for the alerting system have been defined and a basic working framework written. This week will be spent further improving and bug-fixing the framework so that we can move on to writing a UI to easily change the alert rule sets and associations. We'll provide some further details on how the system works soon! Thanks, Adam Armstrong - Project Leader

Obvervium login issue
by untitledpower＠net.hr 23 Jul '13

23 Jul '13

Hello, I have an issue which I have been unable to resolve in the last 5 hourse. My Obversium login simply doesn't work. Nothing happens when I login using real username / password. When I try to login with wrong user/pass it wasy login invalid, but with the real login details nothing happens, no error, just gets me to login page again. I use RHEL6 and i did everything from the guide. Tried with both Apache and nginx, same error. error_log empty. How could I debug this further? I know DB is created successfully and admin users loaded to the mysql table sucessfully. Any help wold be appreciated.

Event Logs Broken and Empty
by Michael Davies 23 Jul '13

23 Jul '13

Hi All, At some stage a wee back, a couple of months ago I think, something broke all the event log bits in Observium. I vaguely remember it breaking after one of the sql updates that took a long time to run on the eventlog table, but I'm not certain about that. Example images: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106803/work/observium1.PNG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106803/work/observium2.PNG Table looks like this: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106803/work/eventlog.txt What might be the best way to fix this up? I'm not worried about any historical data so it's fine if emptying out that DB table is the fix. Thoughts?

HTML mail
by Sander Steffann 22 Jul '13

22 Jul '13

Hi, I just noticed that my alert e-mails are looking funny. In r4203 the content-type of those messages was changed to text/html. Are the messages going to be HTML formatted in the near future? Otherwise it might be more appropriate to send text/plain instead as long as the content is plain text. Cheers, Sander
